test - "no hardware" code

Hi,
How can I test comedi if I do not have my Measurment Computing board yet 
(it has been ordered - I would like to test the software meanwhile)? I saw 
the following driver in an older drivers.txt file:

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Driver: comedi_test.o
Description: generates fake waveforms

This driver is mainly for testing purposes, but can also be used to
generate sample waveforms on systems that don't have data acquisition
hardware.

Configuration options:
   [0] - Amplitude in microvolts for fake waveforms (default 1 volt)
   [1] - Period in microseconds for fake waveforms (default 0.1 sec)

Generates a sawtooth wave on channel 0, square wave on channel 1, 
additional
waveforms could be added to other channels (currently they return flatline
zero volts).
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

I have only successfully installed and compiled comedi and comedilib - 
nothing else.

Thank you,
Adrian
