CP6100 I/O Process Programming Manual

APPENDIX B
CPTEST
CPTEST provides an interactive interface to a protocol module.
Whereas usually applications issue requests and receive
responses, CPTEST lets you type requests and see the responses
on the terminal. CPTEST also displays asynchronous messages if
the protocol sends them. CPTEST works only with a downloaded
CP6100 line.
Your input to CPTEST consists of test requests for the protocol
module, as well as commands for CPTEST itself (for instance, to
start a log file). You can enter your input at the terminal or
specify another input file.
The CPTEST output consists of help messages, expression
evaluations, and responses from the protocol module. All appear
on your terminal. If you use the CPTEST LOG command, it records
the CPTEST commands you enter and the corresponding output. You
can then send the log file to a printer if you want a hard copy
of the testing session.
