About the Test Programs

The Main Menu is the starting point for all of the diagnostic tests.
It contains the following choices:
Diagnostics: When you select this choice from the Main Menu,
the Diagnostics Menu appears. The Diagnostic Menu contains
the following selections:
Quick Check automatically checks the hardware
configuration and builds a group of tests based on the
configuration check. The diagnostic program then runs the
tests for each of the devices or modules found during the
configuration check. Upon completion of the Quick Check,
you are prompted to: Press any key to continue.
Pressing any key at that point brings you back to the
Diagnostic Menu.
Module Tests allow you to more rigorously test an
individual module (or device such as a diskette drive) or
specify a group of tests for several modules. In addition,
you can specify how many times to run an individual test
and how the test program should note and log any errors it
finds. See “Using the Module Tests” on page 227 for more
information about running the module tests.
Options allows you to set or change defaults that affect the
reporting, error logging, and presentation of the error
information. For more information about the options
available, see “Test Options” on page 229.
