Running BoringSSL Protocol-Level Tests (BoGo Tests aka blackbox tests)

This skill describes how to run and configure BoringSSL's protocol-level test suite, which uses a Go-based test harness (runner) and a C++ shim (bssl_shim).

To run and work with these tests, you must refer to the following documentation:

Overview and Running: Read ssl/test/README.md for an overview of the test suite and basic instructions on how to run it manually using go test in the ssl/test/runner directory.
Build Integration: Refer to BUILDING.md (specifically the “Running Tests” section) for how these tests are integrated into the CMake/Ninja build system (e.g., ninja run_tests).

Quick Reference

Running all tests via Go:
```
cd ssl/test/runner && go test
```
Listing/Filtering flags: To see available flags for the runner, build the test binary and run with -help:
```
cd ssl/test/runner
go test -c
./runner.test -help
```
