+This file describes the directives and concepts tested by this test set.
+
+test set name: random01
+
+directives:
+
+ getentropy
+
+concepts:
+
+ Ensure that getentropy() works with different sizes of arrays and delivers
+ different values on multiple calls. It is mainly a check that the function
+ does anything at all and does not write over the end of the buffer.
+
+ Note that this test doesn't check any quality of the random numbers. If you
+ need some reliable information about quality you should use something like the
+ Diehard tests.
