/** \page rtosValidation RTOS Validation Arm offers a Software Pack for the CMSIS-RTOS Validation. The ARM::CMSIS-RTOS_Validation Pack contains the following: - Source code of a CMSIS-RTOS Validation Suite along with configuration file. - Documentation of the CMSIS-RTOS Validation Suite. - Example that shows the usage of the CMSIS-RTOS Validation Suite using simulation. \note Currently, a public version of the test suite is available only for CMSIS-RTOS v1 API. The CMSIS-RTOS Validation Suite performs generic validation of various RTOS features. The test cases verify the functional behavior, test invalid parameters and call management functions from ISR. The following CMSIS-RTOS features can be tested with the current release: - Thread : Create multiple threads, terminate, restart, yield, change priority - Timer : Create periodic and one-shot timers - GenWait : Call generic wait functions (osDelay and osWait) - WaitFunc : Measure wait ticks (delay, mail, message, mutex, semaphore, signal) Moreover the following inter-thread communication functions can be tested: - Signal : Verify signal events - Memory Pool : Verify memory allocation - Message Queue : Exchange messages between threads - Mail Queue : Exchange data between threads - Mutex : Synchronize resource access - Semaphore : Access shared resources The RTOS Validation output can be printed to a console, output via ITM printf, or output to a memory buffer. \section test_output Sample Test Output \verbatim CMSIS-RTOS Test Suite Oct 21 2015 16:39:16 TEST 01: TC_ThreadCreate PASSED TEST 02: TC_ThreadMultiInstance PASSED TEST 03: TC_ThreadTerminate PASSED : : TEST 08: TC_ThreadChainedCreate PASSED TEST 09: TC_ThreadYield NOT EXECUTED TEST 10: TC_ThreadParam PASSED : : TEST 60: TC_MailFromISRToThread PASSED Test Summary: 60 Tests, 59 Executed, 59 Passed, 0 Failed, 0 Warnings.
