"""A factory test to stress CPU, by generating pseudo random numbers.

Description
-----------
It stresses CPU by generating random number using /dev/urandom for a specified
period of time (specified by ``duration_secs``).

Test Procedure
--------------
This is an automated test without user interaction.

Start the test and it will run for the time specified in argument
``duration_secs``, and pass if no errors found; otherwise fail with error
messages and logs.

Dependency
----------
No dependencies.  This test does not support remote DUT.

Examples
--------
To generate random number and stress CPU for 4 hours, add this in test list::

  {
    "pytest_name": "urandom",
    "args": {
      "duration_secs": 14400
    }
  }
