METHOD FOR TESTING THE BEHAVIOR OF AN APPLICATION COOPERATING WITH A FLASH MEMORY PILOT

摘要

The present invention relates to a method for testing an application belonging to a top layer of a driver of a non-volatile flash memory of the NAND type, said flash memory comprising a set of blocks to which the application accesses read or write or in deletion, each block each comprising a plurality of pages, said test being intended to check the behavior of the application with respect to the appearance of a bad block, physically altered, during an access attempt in reading or writing or erasure on said block, the method comprising the establishment of a simulated list of bad blocks, intended to be considered as bad blocks by the flash memory driver, and the implementation of an algorithm, said algorithm comprising returning an error to the application when said application seeks to access read or write or erase to a block of the flash memory to the simulated list of bad blocks
