Why obviously?

The software that generates the file is not secret, and presumably there is 
equivalent hardware to that used in the KMF that is available for testing. It 
seems like it ought to be straightforward to generate some test files. Testing 
prior to first production use seems like a sensible thing to do.

Similarly, it seems like testing the adequacy of the standard before it is 
published is the right the order to do things. It's much harder to correct 
ambiguity after publication than before.
