[Rng] PractRand
Has this testing suite been investigated:
PractRand
http://pracrand.sourceforge.net/ <http://pracrand.sourceforge.net/>
It may provide a useful alternative to Dieharder or TestU01. I supports direct calls to the test suite using an API or piped data from stdin.

This should be easy to run with the new command-line application for
stress testing. It accepts stdin so can be run without modification as
per dieharder.

I didn't know about it, until coming across from the "Middle-square
Weyl PRNG" page.

Sure; it would be nice to expand the "quality" table of the userguide.
[And IIUC there are RNG implementations which we could add to
the ports list.]
