+The module can perform the following self-tests:
+* Power-up self-tests
+** Cryptographic algorithm tests (known-answer tests): RC2, RC4, DES, Triple DES, AES-128, AES-192, AES-256, MD2, MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-384, SHA-512, HMAC-SHA-1, HMAC-SHA-256, HMAC-SHA-384, HMAC-SHA-512, RSA, DSA, RNG, and ECDSA ([http://www.mozilla.org/projects/security/pki/nss/fips/nss-source/mozilla/security/nss/lib/softoken/fipstest.c.html source code]). Note that the message digest algorithms have independent known-answer tests.
+** Software integrity test
+* Conditional self-tests
+** Pair-wise consistency test (for public and private keys)
+** Continous random number generator test
