Miscellaneous DirectDraw Test

These automated tests are regression tests for various driver bugs that have been reported in the past.

This set of tests contains tests for

  • Page flipping between a large number of back buffers.

  • Color Fill Blt calls, in which an unnecessary source surface is provided.

  • Color Converting Blts. Although drivers are not required to support these, they must at least provide graceful failure.

  • 1x1 pixel overlays.

Note  

All of these tests are contained in the Fnddraw.exe file, and you can select these tests in the dd_misc.pro profile.
