File formats

NIST STS, Dieharder and TestU01 provide standard output files with resulting p-values of individual tests. For interpretation, see the documentation of the test suites.

EACirc's output files adhere to syntax described in the developer wiki at https://github.com/crocs-muni/eacirc Note, however, that the tool evolves and the syntax might have changed. The format tries to be as self-explanatory as possible, but if in doubt, feel free to email the developers.
