# Random tests

[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/huonw/random-tests.png)](https://travis-ci.org/huonw/random-tests)

Probabilistic tests for the distributions in Rust's standard

library. These are mostly significance level tests, and so will fail

occasionally (assuming the distributions are implemented

correctly... if they aren't then it will hopefully fail always).

Run with

    rustc --opt-level=3 --test lib.rs && ./lib

This can take a long time, since it uses a lot of random

numbers. Adjust the constants in `std_dists` for more/fewer numbers,

higher is better (but slower).

# TODO

- full of approximations (e.g. it replaces student-t by normal always)

- larger variety of tests (currently just performs t-tests on a set of

  sample means and sample observations to check these are close to the

  expected values)

- should probably use TestU01 and/or Diehard[er] instead of/as well as

  hand-written pure Rust tests.
