## Tests
-This crate has three test suites that can be selected using features. One test
-suite assumes that no Nitrokey device is connected. It is run if no other test
-suite is selected. The two other test suites require a Nitrokey Pro (feature
-`test-pro`) or a Nitrokey Storage (feature `test-storage`) to be connected.
+This crate has tests for different scenarios: Some tests require that no
+Nitrokey device is connected, others require a Nitrokey Storage or a Nitrokey
+Pro. We use the [`nitrokey-test`][] crate to select the test cases. You can
+just run `cargo test` to auto-detect connected Nitrokey devices and to run the
+appropriate tests. If you want to manually select the tests, set the
+`NITROKEY_TEST_GROUP` environment variable to `nodev` (no device connected),
+`pro` (Nitrokey Pro connected) or `storage` (Nitrokey Storage connected).
-Use the `--features` option for Cargo to select one of the test suites. You
-should select more than one of the test suites at the same time. Note that the
-test suites that require a Nitrokey device assume that the device’s passwords
-are the factory defaults (admin password `12345678` and user password
-`123456`). Running the test suite with a device with different passwords might
-lock your device! Also note that the test suite might delete or overwrite data
-on all connected devices.
-
-As the tests currently are not synchronized, you have to make sure that they
-are not executed in parallel. To do so, pass the option `--test-threads 1` to
-the test executable.
-
-In conclusion, you can use these commands to run the test suites:
-
-```
-$ cargo test
-$ cargo test --features test-pro -- --test-threads 1
-$ cargo test --features test-storage -- --test-threads 1
-```
+Note that the tests assume that the device’s passwords are the factory defaults
+(admin PIN `12345678`, user PIN `123456`, update password `12345678`) and that
+an AES key has been built. Some tests will overwrite the data stored on the
+Nitrokey device or perform a factory reset. Never execute the tests if you
+unless yout want to destroy all data on all connected Nitrokey devices!
The `totp_no_pin` and `totp_pin` tests can occasionally fail due to bad timing.
