3.3.10 LOG File Sample 
  Log file is a test result file, which record s the following information: Test module name, 
Test item name, Start/End time and the test result (including PA SS, FAIL, SKIP and 
ABORT). When a failure is found, both the er ror code and the error information were 
recorded. 
  In the Log file, we use  Test Items as the test item name, which could not be modified in 
the whole time. And we use the  Internal Name as name in the program’s UI, which 
corresponds to the test item name and could be modified according to the user’s favorite. 
  The following section is a sample of log file:

Diagnostic menu, then highlight  CPU and press the Enter  to run this test item. 
Subtest 01 CPU  
 
1. Basic Functionality Test 
This test item is to check whether  the CPU works normally through math and 
logic calculation, which means verifying  the general registers, math registers 
and logic registers.

9  NPU Basic Functions Test 
This test item is to check whether th e precision of the numeric processor in 
the float calculation is up to the IEEE standards. 
9  NPU Interrupt Test 
This test item is to check whether NPU transfers the abnormal Interrupt 
program correctly by forcing an abnormal float. 
4. CPU Information 
This test item is used for getting & showing CPU Information. It will be
