I know exactly what this forum is for.

Read through this group and see how many people I . Loads!

Immediately before posting a reply to you, I had posted actual answers
to 5 other posters questions.

What I posted was NOT a flame. I was pointing out that, if you don't
tell us what sort of errors you are getting, we cannot tell you where
to look for answers.

Now you have told us what is failing, but not given any clues as to
the type of errors.

It's like going into an auto parts shop and asking for a spare part
for your car and when they ask what part you need, you tell them that
the car is a Ford!

Now quit being a dick-head and think about what sort of things you
need to tell us so that we can answer your question!

You say "Is there a document somewhere out there that tells what each
test case
is supposed to test, the expected results, and maybe what failing the
test means and how to address it?"

That depends on what the failure is. If you go to a hospital because
there is something wrong with you, the treatment has to be based on
the symptoms, not on the part of the body that is not working.

If you fail the test of being able to pick somethign up, it could be
that you have broken a bone in your arm, or you could have had a
stroke, or severed a tendon.

Also, if you look through my replies, you will see that I almost
always post the documentaion reference where I find the answer.

I spend a lot of time going to the manual and looking things up for
lazy gits who can't be bothered to search properly.

Now, if you want , get off your high horse and give us the
information that Willem and I said we needed. Otherwise p*ss-off.
