1.0 Overview

Storage Test Tools for NetWare^® help you develop higher quality drivers for host bus adapters (HBAs) and peripheral devices through an intensive compatibility testing program. This compatibility enables you to widen the market for your products. The tests are menu driven and provide instructions for the installation of the software and setup parameters for testing Fibre Channel, SCSI, or EIDE/ATA HBA adapters and their drivers.

Storage Test Tools for NetWare contain the tools needed to qualify your software application for the Novell YES CERTIFIED^TM program.
