Topic	Description
NdisFilterTimedDataReceive	The NdisFilterTimedDataReceive rule verifies that an NDIS filter driver completes a receive request by the FilterReceiveNetBufferLists function before timing out.
NdisFilterTimedDataSend	The NdisFilterTimedDataSend rule verifies that an NDIS filter driver completes a send request by the FilterSendNetBufferLists function before timing out.
NdisFilterTimedPauseComplete	The NdisFilterTimedPauseComplete verifies three things: The FilterPause function will be completed in 10 seconds or less. The FilterPause function must not fail. The FilterPause function must not complete twice.
NdisOidComplete	The NdisOidComplete rule verifies that an NDIS miniport driver completes an OID correctly.
NdisOidDoubleComplete	The NdisOidDoubleComplete rule specifies that an NDIS miniport driver must not call the NdisMOidRequestComplete routine twice for the same OID.
NdisOidDoubleRequest	This NdisOidDoubleRequest rule verifies that: Miniport driver must complete the NDIS_OID_REQUEST that is currently pending.
NdisTimedDataHang	The NdisTimedDataHang rule verifies that an NDIS miniport driver processes any pending send requests for NET_BUFFER_LIST structures within 22 seconds.
NdisTimedDataSend	The NdisTimedDataSend rule verifies that when an NDIS driver calls MiniportSendNetBufferLists, the miniport driver completes the send request within 30 seconds.
NdisTimedOidComplete	The NdisTimedOidComplete rule specifies that the NDIS miniport driver completes an OID request within 12 seconds.
WlanAssert	The WlanAssert rule includes a set of checks validated inside the WDIWIFI driver.
WlanAssociation	The WlanAssociation rule verifies the miniport driver correctly follows the Native 802.11 wireless LAN (WLAN) association sequence.
WlanConnectionRoaming	The WlanConnectionRoaming rule verifies the miniport driver correctly follows the Native 802.11 wireless LAN (WLAN) connection and roaming sequence.
WlanDisassociation	The WlanDisassociation rule verifies that the miniport driver correctly follows the Native 802.11 wireless LAN (WLAN) disassociation sequence.
WlanTimedAssociation	The WlanTimedAssociation rule specifies that the NDIS miniport driver finishes the wireless LAN (WLAN) association operation in 10 seconds.
WlanTimedConnectionRoaming	The WlanTimedConnectionRoaming rule specifies that the NDIS miniport driver finishes the wireless LAN (WLAN) connection/roaming operations within 10 seconds.
WlanTimedConnectRequest	The WlanTimedConnectRequest rule verifies that an OID_DOT11_CONNECT_REQUEST is followed by a NDIS_STATUS_DOT11_CONNECTION_START within 10 seconds.
WlanTimedScan	The WlanTimedScan rule verifies that a WLAN scan operation is completed within 15 seconds.
WlanTimedLinkQuality	The WlanTimedLinkQuality rule specifies the NDIS_STATUS_DOT11_LINK_QUALITY indication is made in 15 seconds after a successful NDIS_STATUS_DOT11_ASSOCIATION_COMPLETION.

How to test

At run time
Run Driver Verifier and select the NDIS/WIFI verification option.
