exercised and requires no user intervention.
Complete Test—Provides a predetermined script in which most hardware components are fully tested.
You can select Interactive or Unattended tests, which will change the devices tested during the Complete
Test. More tests are available in Interactive mode, but these require user intervention.
Custom Test—Provides the most flexibility in controlling the testing of a system. The Custom Test mode
enables you to select which devices, tests, and test parameters are run. You can select tests that do
not require any user interaction through the Interactive or Unattended test modes. More tests are
available in Interactive mode, but these require user intervention.
