I see Greg sometimes asks "how did you test it?" when he notices that the
developers don't say so explicitly. I guess he wants to know this whenever
changes have the potential to interrupt or alter the proper functioning of
drivers in ways that aren't clearly identifiable by just reading the code.
I think not all changes require testing. However, I guess it's best to play
it safe and say if and how you did the tests.
