+# A test script for paycheck.py and the update_payload.py library.
+#
+# This script requires three payload files, along with a metadata signature for
+# each, and a public key for verifying signatures. Payload include:
+#
+# - A full payload for release X (old_full_payload)
+#
+# - A full payload for release Y (new_full_payload), where Y > X
+#
+# - A delta payload from X to Y (delta_payload)
+#
+# The test performs the following:
+#
+# - It verifies each payload against its metadata signature, also asserting the
+#   payload type. Another artifact is a human-readable payload report, which
+#   is output to stdout to be inspected by the user.
+#
+# - It performs a random block trace on the delta payload (both kernel and
+#   rootfs blocks), dumping the traces to stdout for the user to inspect.
+#
+# - It applies old_full_payload to yield old kernel (old_kern.part) and rootfs
+#   (old_root.part) partitions.
+#
+# - It applies delta_payload to old_{kern,root}.part to yield new kernel
+#   (new_delta_kern.part) and rootfs (new_delta_root.part) partitions.
+#
+# - It applies new_full_payload to yield reference new kernel
+#   (new_full_kern.part) and rootfs (new_full_root.part) partitions.
+#
+# - It compares new_{delta,full}_kern.part and new_{delta,full}_root.part to
+#   ensure that they are binary identical.
+#
+# If all steps have completed successfully we know with high certainty that
+# paycheck.py (and hence update_payload.py) correctly parses both full and
+# delta payloads, and applies them to yield the expected result. We also know
+# that tracing works, to the extent it does not crash. Manual inspection of
