+This directory contains the fwknop test suite. After compiling the fwknop
+sources in the parent directory of test/ the test suite can be executed. One
+of the most comprehensive ways of executing the test suite is as follows:
+
+# ./run-test-suite.sh --enable-all
+
+This mode enables IP resolution tests, so you will need Internet access in this
+case. If this is not possible or desirable, then another comprehensive testing
+mode can be achieved with:
+
+# ./run-test-suite.sh --enable-recompile --enable-perl-module-checks --enable-distcheck
+
+Additional detail on the test suite (including --diff and --enable-valgrind
+modes) may be found in the fwknop tutorial available here:
+
+http://www.cipherdyne.org/fwknop/docs/fwknop-tutorial.html#3.5

+# The safeest way to run the fwknop test suite is by using this script - on
+# some platforms setting the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable via the standard perl
+# perl %ENV hash does not seem to work properly when running in
+# --enable-perl-module-checks mode. This mode is used to test the perl FKO
+# libfko bindings. CentOS 6.3 was one platform where this seemed to be an
+# issue, but setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH on the command line manually causes things
+# to work properly.
