I would like to use the Driver Verifier to test a device driver we have
developed for Embedded XP. Is this possible, or will I have to move the
driver to XP Professional to run the Driver Verifier?
 
Jackie,

You can use the same tools on XPe as on XP Pro as long as you can run them (all the tool dependencies are there).

Driver development on XPE is similar to XP Pro so you can actually verify the driver on XP Pro too.
 
Thanks for your response. I think I'll begin testing under XP Pro. Our XPe is
really stripped down and might not have everything we need.

However, I would eventually like to run the verifier under XPe, but I have
been unable to find the XPe specific verifier.exe. Any suggestions on where I
should look?

Thanks again.
 
Jackie,

Please remember there is no XPe specific applications except EEF (Embedded Enabled Features) which do not include driver tools like
Verifier. (although there is Signature Verifier and Application Verifier tool available in XPE Repository).

I think you will just have to grab the XP XPro's Driver Verifier (from DDK, for instance) and run it at your run time.
Use tools like Dependency Walker to see if all the Verifier's dependencies are in your image.
