Re: Using ACATS for BSP check

[Marin David Condic <mcondic.auntie.spam@acm.org>]

You might find some useful stuff in ACATS that will help you test this package, but I doubt it
will easily exercise all the things you want. Remember, that ACATS is designed to test compiler
compliance, so it isn't likely to drive I/O devices, etc. very heavily. Perhaps some of the
stuff that covers tasking will exercise the OS some. You may be better off with some other body
of code.
