+<p>If enabled, mtd-utils include user-space tools that can be used to stress
+test the UBI stack. This is useful if you want to test the stability and
+correctness of your particular UBI stack implementation.</p>
+
+<p>Example, running various UBI tests:</p>
+
+<pre>
+$ flash_erase /dev/mtd3 0 0
+$ ubiattach --mtdn 3
+$ /usr/libexec/mtd-utils/runubitests.sh /dev/ubi0
