Driver Conformance Checker (for Platform 6 and later)

This tool performs a comprehensive set of tests on a driver to determine its conformance with the relevant ASCOM interface standard. It also tests some aspects of driver behavior against the reference implementation.
Use this tool to test your driver before each release (even pre-production). Please
come back periodically to get the lastest version. We add tests as additional issues are discovered.
