%% Test suite for timer module. This is a really nasty test it runs a
%% lot of timeouts and then checks in the end if any of them was
%% trigggered too early or if any late timeouts was much too
%% late. What should be added is more testing of the interface
%% functions I guess. But I don't have time for that now.
%%
%% Expect it to run for at least 5-10 minutes!
%% Except for VxWorks of course, where a couple of hours is more apropriate...


%% The main test case in this module is "do_big_test", which
%% orders a large number of timeouts and measures how
%% exact the timeouts arrives. To simulate a system under load there is
%% also a number of other concurrent processes running "nrev" at the same
%% time. The result is analyzed afterwards by trying to check if the
%% measured values are reasonable. It is hard to determine what is
%% reasonable on different machines therefore the test can sometimes
%% fail, even though the timer module is ok. I have checked against
%% previous versions of the timer module (which contained bugs) and it
%% seems it fails every time when running the buggy timer modules.
%% 
%% The solution is to rewrite the test suite. Possible strategies for a
%% rewrite: smarter math on the measuring data, test cases with varying
%% amount of load. The test suite should also include tests that test the
%% interface of the timer module.
