Hi together!
I am currently wondering which test cases make sense after an integration of winscard patches. So far most API calls are directly related to pcsc-lite behaviour and therefore we need a result from pcsc-lite which is comparable with what Win/winscard.dll would return to us. But this is almost always depending on the smartcard reader setup at the local machine. As a result I see a problem to automate such tests without having underlying assumptions concerning the attached smartcard readers and maybe inserted (or not) smartcards (i.e. specific hardware is necessary). Any ideas? Does anyone know whether someone has written a virtual card reader which can be accessed using pcsc-lite (i.e. an IFD handler exists which simulates reader behaviour)? Maybe together with the option to insert a virtual card? If not then I am going to subscribe to the pcsc-lite maling list and ask this question there, too.
Any other ideas how to automate winscard tests to be able to add such tests to the regression test suite?
