 # Test programs for the RAID library
 #
-# selftest - Runs the same selftest and speedtest executed at the module startup.
-# fulltest - Runs a more extensive test that checks all the built-in functions.
-# speedtest - Runs a more complete speed test.
-# invtest - Runs an extensive matrix inversion test of all the 377.342.351.231
-#           possible square submatrices of the Cauchy matrix used.
-# covtest - Runs a coverage test.
-# sdecovtest - Runs a coverage test with the sde emulator.
+# Primary Targets:
+# all          - Builds all test and utility binaries (fulltest, speedtest, selftest, invtest, mktables).
+# clean        - Removes all temporary object files, build artifacts, and coverage metadata.
+# distclean    - Runs clean and deletes all compiled test executables.
+#
+# Test & Diagnostic Binaries:
+# selftest     - Runs the same verification and speed tests executed at module initialization.
+# speedtest    - Runs a comprehensive performance/throughput benchmark suite.
+# fulltest     - Runs an exhaustive test suite verifying all built-in RAID functions.
+# invtest      - Runs an extensive matrix inversion test on all 377,342,351,231
+#                possible square submatrices of the Cauchy matrix used.
+#
+# Test Automation & Emulation:
+# test         - Automated test runner that executes ./selftest, ./speedtest, and ./fulltest.
+# covtest      - Executes a code coverage test using lcov/genhtml to generate HTML reports.
+# sdecovtest   - Runs an extensive coverage test using the Intel SDE emulator across 
+#                multiple CPU architectures (Prescott, Merom, Nehalem, Haswell, Skylake, Ice Lake).
+# sde          - Runs selftest, speedtest, and fulltest explicitly on the Ice Lake simulator.
