4.1. Software

In order to get a meaningful test run of an HPI implementation, the tester will need to first setup the target HPI implementation as specified by that implementations documentation.

In addition to a properly configured HPI implementation, the test suite assumes that the system under test supports base POSIX functionality and has a header file in the normal system include path named "SaHpi.h".

If the implementation installs the HPI header file in a different location or with a different name, a link will need to be created to SaHpi.h in the default system search path for include files. (On linux /usr/include/SaHpi.h would be work.)
