OBDII not ready code

Any Ideas about passing an OBDII inspection if I don't have any codes but I three not ready codes on the emissions test. The three codes are the O2, catalytic and another code on the exhaust system.

if its what i tihnk it is you just need to drive it.
go to the nearest highway and get on and off and do all of the speed limits. do this for like 30 minutes to an hour and everythnig should be good.

^^^what he said. The emissions test fail is intended (by the state) to keep people from clearing codes and getting an emissions test done. Drive the car, and get the test without disconnecting the battery or clearing codes. If it's throwing codes, get it fixed, drive it and then test.
