+# basic-build-tests.sh
+#
+# Copyright (c) 2016, ARM Limited, All Rights Reserved
+#
+# Purpose
+#
+# Executes the basic test suites, captures the results, and generates a simple
+# test report and code coverage report.
+#
+# The tests include:
+#   * Self-tests                - executed using program/test/selftest
+#   * Unit tests                - executed using tests/scripts/run-test-suite.pl
+#   * System tests              - executed using tests/ssl-opt.sh
+#   * Interoperability tests    - executed using tests/compat.sh
+#
+# The tests focus on functionality and do not consider performance.
+#
+# Note the tests self-adapt due to configurations in include/mbedtls/config.h
+# which can lead to some tests being skipped, and can cause the number of
+# available self-tests to fluctuate.
+#
+# This script has been written to be generic and should work on any shell.
+#
+# Usage: basic-build-tests.sh
+#
+
+# Abort on errors (and uninitiliased variables)
