RE: STRIDE is applied to both xUnit-style and system-level testing. Was surprised to see this statement. We usually tell customers that Stride can be used for all types of testing up to (pre) system test.

RE: If your primary interest is in integration or QA-style testing, proceed to the Test Scripts topic.

Tim - lets discuss.

RE: You will be using the FrameworkSetup.pl script to setup packages for a Windows Framework.
Perhaps should be “You will be using the FrameworkSetup.pl script to setup a Workspace with packages using a Windows Framework".

Inconsistency/error in “Wiki – Performing the Exercise"
RE: One way Command Message with Payload By Value

• First bullet states “…with a payload passed by pointer and POOL memory usage.” – inconsistent with exercise title "By Value"
• “… and a payload consisting of a long field.” It’s not clear to me whether you’re asking for a payload of type long, or a payload of type structure with a single field of type long. The use of the word field is a little confusing.

RE: One way Response Message with Payload By Pointer

• First bullet states “…with a payload passed by value.” – inconsistent with exercise title “By Pointer”
• “…and a payload consisting of an int field.” Again, is this to be a payload of type int, or a structure with a single field of type int.

Comment on “Wiki - Two Way Message with Response Payload”
RE: with an empty command payload

• Since we define a Stride message as having an optional payload, I think the word empty may be misleading here. I think no payload is more accurate.

Inconsistency/error in “Wiki – Performing the Exercise”
RE: Broadcast Message with No Payload

• First bulled states “…with a payload passed by value” – inconsistent with exercise title “No Payload”

On first run, all tests failed due to incorrect message name used. Instruction was not explicit on what naming convention to use for the SMID definitions.

After changing SMID names, 3 tests passed, 1 (TWO_WAY_MSG) failed.
