+How to add recipes
+==================
+
+For any test that you want to perform, you write a script located in
+test/recipes/, named {nn}-test_{name}.t, where {nn} is a two digit number and
+{name} is a unique name of your choice.
+
+Please note that if a test involves a new testing executable, you will need to
+do some additions in test/Makefile. More on this later.
+
+
+Naming conventions
+=================
+
+A test executable is named test/{name}test.c
+
+A test recipe is named test/recipes/{nn}-test_{name}.t, where {nn} is a two
+digit number and {name} is a unique name of your choice.
+
+The number {nn} is (somewhat loosely) grouped as follows:
+
+00-04 sanity, internal and essential API tests
+05-09 individual symmetric cipher algorithms
+10-14 math (bignum)
+15-19 individual asymmetric cipher algorithms
+20-24 openssl commands (some otherwise not tested)
+25-29 certificate forms, generation and verification
+30-35 engine and evp
+60-79 APIs
+ 70 PACKET layer
+80-89 "larger" protocols (CA, CMS, OCSP, SSL, TSA)
+90-99 misc
+
+
+A recipe that just runs a test executable
+=========================================
+
+A script that just runs a program looks like this:
+
+ #! /usr/bin/perl
+
+ use OpenSSL::Test::Simple;
+
+ simple_test("test_{name}", "{name}test", "{name}");
+
+{name} is the unique name you have chosen for your test.
+
+The second argument to `simple_test' is the test executable, and `simple_test'
+expects it to be located in test/
+
+For documentation on OpenSSL::Test::Simple, do
+`perldoc test/testlib/OpenSSL/Test/Simple.pm'.
+
+
+A recipe that runs a more complex test
+======================================
+
+For more complex tests, you will need to read up on Test::More and
+OpenSSL::Test. Test::More is normally preinstalled, do `man Test::More' for
+documentation. For OpenSSL::Test, do `perldoc test/testlib/OpenSSL/Test.pm'.
+
+A script to start from could be this:
+
+ #! /usr/bin/perl
+
+ use strict;
+ use warnings;
+ use OpenSSL::Test;
+
+ setup("test_{name}");
+
+ plan tests => 2; # The number of tests being performed
+
+ ok(test1, "test1");
+ ok(test2, "test1");
+
+ sub test1
+ {
+ # test feature 1
+ }
+
+ sub test2
+ {
+ # test feature 2
+ }
+
+
+Changes to test/Makefile
+========================
+
+Whenever a new test involves a new test executable you need to do the
+following (at all times, replace {NAME} and {name} with the name of your
+test):
+
+* among the variables for test executables at the beginning, add a line like
+ this:
+
+ {NAME}TEST= {name}test
+
+* add `$({NAME}TEST)$(EXE_EXT)' to the assignment of EXE:
+
+* add `$({NAME}TEST).o' to the assignment of OBJ:
+
+* add `$({NAME}TEST).c' to the assignment of SRC:
+
+* add the following lines for building the executable:
+
+ $({NAME}TEST)$(EXE_EXT): $({NAME}TEST).o $(DLIBCRYPTO)
+ @target=$({NAME}TEST); $(BUILD_CMD)
