+Run [Cryptographic Algorithm Validation Program (CAVP)][cavp] tests
+for the following algorithms:
+
+* SHA-3 224
+* SHA-3 256
+* SHA-3 384
+* SHA-3 512
+* SHAKE128
+* SHAKE256
+
+The test functions themselves are in `main.c`, which is generated from
+the [CAVP][] byte test vector archives by `gen-main.rb`. These tests
+are excluded from the tests in `sha3.c` because they are huge.
