1.2.4 Testing the Installation

You are now ready to the test the installation. Cogsys comes with a large number of demonstration and diagnostic testlists in the `/data/sample' directory. By convention, testlists have the `.in' extension. Right now, you just want to run `/data/sample/hello.in', which is a very simple testlist.

From the COGSYS Login menu, type 'q' to quit to the `cogsh#' prompt. You are already in the /data directory, so the sample testlist is addressed as `sample/hello.in'. Simply run Cogsys with the name of the testlist you want to run:

cogsh# run sample/hello.in

You should briefly see a Cogsys version message, and then the screen will clear and you'll see the words:

Welcome to Cogsys! Press any key to exit.

at the top of the screen. Press any key, and you'll see the standard Cogsys end of testlist message

End of experiment -------------------- Thank you. Done

followed by your `cogsh#' prompt.
