Application Verifier is designed specifically to detect and help debug memory corruptions and critical security vulnerabilities.

This is achieved by monitoring a native application's interaction with the Windows operating system, profiling its use of objects, the registry, the file system, and Win32 APIs (including heaps, handles, locks, etc), and indicating issues when and where they are discovered.

Application Verifier also includes checks to predict how well an application may perform under various account privileges. These compatibility tests are used in Windows Logo program.

Furthermore, this package also comes with print verification tests that will enable you to verify your usage of the print subsystem.

Requirements:

· You must be an administrator on the system that you are using in order to run Application Verifier.
· You must run your project with the tool turned on and go through your testing scenarios
· Application Verifier supports x86, x64 and IA64 platforms
· If full page heap is enabled, you will need to ensure you have a large page file (e.g. 1Gb).
· The Basics verification layer will require that you run your application under a debugger.
