First a general remark on top-posting email replies. More explanation can be found all over the internet so copy-paste the question in your fav search engine. A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text. Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing? Again, wireless-testing is not a testing framework. It is one out of three repositories provided by John Linville. Each of which serves its purpose. If you look for a kernel testing framework you could try Autotest (see [1]). I have not tried it, but there has been a presentation on a wireless summit couple of years ago by Sam Leffler. Gr.
