Chapter 21. Tools for Testing WDF Drivers
Thorough testing throughout all phases of development is essential to create a robust, high-quality driver. It is critical to find and fix as many bugs as possible before releasing a driver to customers, especially in kernel-mode drivers, where bugs are far more likely to cause the system to crash or hang.
This chapter provides a brief introduction to testing and verification tools for WDF drivers.
