A method, apparatus, system, and signal-bearing medium that in an
embodiment generate keys based on a number of commands that can be
outstanding at a device under test at any one time, embed the keys into
respective data associated with respective commands, and send the
commands to a device under test. When output is received from the device
under test, the key embedded in the output may be used to determine the
command associated with the output. In this way, the data may remain
random while the test case command associated with the output may be
determined based on the data.
