- ; This file contains all the information you need to create your
- ; own .ZDR batch file. It describes how to use the batch mode commands
- ; and parameters so you can run tests and save results automatically,
- ; without having to manually perform these tasks.
- ;
- ; Copy and edit this file to reflect your computer's environment
- ; settings.
- ;
- ; Use this batch file's StepN section(s) to both call the suite file
- ; and name your result files.
- ;
- ; To "comment out" any parameters or descriptions, start the line with
- ; a semi-colon.
- ;
- ; To run Winstone 98 in batch mode, double click on the .ZDR file
- ; from explorer.
-
- [Config]
-
- Benchmark=WS98
-
- [Environment]
-
- ; When you make any changes to the computer's environment settings using
- ; the System Info dialog, Winstone 98 records those changes in the
- ; SYSINFO.INI file. You can override the SYSINFO.INI file settings by
- ; copying entries from the [ChangedByUser], [NotChangedByUser], or [BasicInfo]
- ; sections in the SYSINFO.INI file to this section of the .ZDR file and
- ; modifying them.
- ;
-
-
- [Options]
-
- ; Setting ExitBenchmark to True causes Winstone 98 to exit when
- ; it completes all its tests. The default value is True,
- ; so Winstone 98 stops normally after completing its tests. Setting the
- ; value to False leaves the benchmark running after the tests have completed.
-
- ExitBenchmark=True
-
- ; Setting DemoMode to True causes Winstone 98 to run, in demo mode, the test
- ; suite specified in the first StepN section of this batch file . The default
- ; value is False.
- ;
- ; Winstone 98 will not save any results when it runs in demo mode,
- ; and it will ignore the ExitBenchmark and ExitWindows settings,
- ; as well as all sections named [StepN], where N is larger than 1.
-
- DemoMode=False
-
- ; Setting this option to True causes Winstone 98 to check the
- ; Configuration Information.
-
- SystemConfigurationCheck=False
-
- [Messages]
-
- ; InitMessage contains a time-out value in seconds (whole numbers only) and a string
- ; that Winstone 98 displays in a message box after the batch file starts running. This
- ; field is optional.
- ;
- ; A time-out value of 0 indicates that Winstone 98 will display the
- ; message box until the tester closes that box. Winstone 98 replaces
- ; tilde characters (~) with line breaks in the actual message
- ; box.
-
- ;The following message displays for 5 seconds.
-
- InitMessage=5,Winstone 98 is starting.
-
-
- ; Repeat the StepN section as many times as you want, with N
- ; starting at 1 and increasing. Each section specifies a suite
- ; of tests to run, options Winstone 98 should use during those
- ; tests, and results files to save.
- ;
- ; Our sample batch file has two steps. Step1 defrags the hard disk
- ; and reboots the system. Step 2 runs all Winstone 98 tests, saves the
- ; results in the default database, and starts over with step 1.
-
-
- [Step1]
-
- ; StartMessage and EndMessage contain a time-out value in
- ; seconds and a string Winstone 98 displays in a message box
- ; at the beginning and end of the Step, respectively. Both
- ; messages are optional. A time-out value of 0 indicates
- ; Winstone 98 will display the message box until the tester
- ; closes that box and will not run the rest of the batch file until
- ; the box is closed. Winstone 98 replaces tilde characters (~)
- ; with line breaks in the message box.
-
- StartMessage=5,Disk defrag will start in 5 seconds (Windows 95 only). After defrag is finished, the computer will reboot.
- ;EndMessage=5, Defrag complete.~Rebooting computer.
-
-
- ; ChangeScreen causes the screen to change to specified resolution and
- ; colordepth. Only use this command in a step without a Suite or
- ; SuiteSection specified.
- ;
- ; The command below sets the screen to 1024x768 at 16 bit colordepth.
-
- ;ChangeScreen=1024,768,16
-
-
- ; Setting UserEditBasicInfo to True causes Winstone 98 to display the
- ; Change Basic Info dialog box for the user to change. The batch file
- ; waits for the user to dismiss the dialog before proceeding.
-
- ;UserEditBasicInfo=TRUE
-
-
- ; Setting Defrag to True causes Winstone 98 to launch the Windows Disk
- ; Defragmenter program when Winstone 98 terminates. The default value
- ; is False, which does not run the defrag program.
-
- Defrag=TRUE
-
-
- ; Setting RebootSystem to True causes Winstone 98 to reboot the
- ; computer when Winstone 98 terminates. The default value is False, so
- ; Winstone 98 normally exits and leaves Windows running.
-
- RebootSystem=True
-
-
- [Step2]
-
- ; Repeat the StepN section as many times as you want, with N
- ; starting at 1 and increasing. Each section specifies a suite
- ; of tests to run, options Winstone 98 should use during those
- ; tests, and results files to save.
- ;
- ; The Suite setting specifies the path name of the .ZDS suite file
- ; that contains the list of tests to run and/or display. The
- ; WS98ALL.ZDS suite included with the benchmark contains all the
- ; Winstone 98 tests. You can create additional suite files by
- ; running the benchmark and choosing Create from the Suite menu.
- ;
- ; The following setting assumes the benchmark is installed in C:\ZDBENCH.
-
-
- ;Suite=c:\zdbench\suites\ws98all.zds
-
- ; The suite definition can also be included directly in this file
- ; with the SuiteSection command.
-
- SuiteSection=Suite1
-
-
-
- ; Winstone 98 adds the basic info fields to the results file. These
- ; fields let you change the Description, Comments, and variants for
- ; each Step. You would normally change them by using the Edit Basic
- ; Info dialog. You can set these fields in the Environment
- ; section above or use different values for each step.
-
- ;Description=Tester Must Supply
- ;Comments=Tester Must Supply
- ; Other Basic Information can go here.
-
- ; Setting ClearResults to False prevents Winstone 98 from forgetting
- ; all results from previous steps. The default value is True,
- ; meaning Winstone 98 will forget all previous results at the start
- ; of the step.
-
- ClearResults=True
-
- ; StartMessage and EndMessage contain a time-out value in
- ; seconds and a string Winstone 98 displays in a message box
- ; at the beginning and end of the Step, respectively. Both
- ; messages are optional. A time-out value of 0 indicates
- ; Winstone 98 will display the message box until the tester
- ; closes that box and will not run the rest of the batch file until
- ; the box is closed. Winstone 98 replaces tilde characters (~)
- ; with line breaks in the message box.
-
- StartMessage=10,Winstone 98 is about to start running all tests.
- EndMessage=10,Winstone 98 has saved the results in the file~Results98.ztd.

- ; semi-colon (;) from the Database setting line and changing the
- ; path name of the database directory.
-
- Database=c:\ZDBench\Results\Results98.ztd
-
- ; Edit the settings below by changing the file name and
