A user can recreate these input files, if he so chooses. These input hash files were created by usage of one of the script files in the test suite, which will use perl (requires several Crypt/Athens CPAN modules installed) and a perl script pass_gen.pl and some helper C code, to generate a proper working 'set' of input files. The test suite is a set of script files, dictionary file(s) (Some to create the test suite, and 2 to 'run' against the test suite), and a set of john input hash files. This is where the 'John-Test-Suite' has come into play. However, there can be problems which DO slip by the self test. There is a self-test mode built into john, that helps to detect the worst of the worst errors. So, you have john built, or have added a new great format to john.
