I notice that the OpenSSL 3.0.0 design page
https://www.openssl.org/docs/OpenSSL300Design.html still references
"CAVS testing" even though CAVS testing is shortly ending with the
release of ACVP testing. See:
https://csrc.nist.gov/Projects/Automated-Cryptographic-Validation-Testing
The new format is JSON based and entirely different from the previous
CAVS file format.

Is OpenSSL team simply using "CAVS Testing" generically or is OpenSSL
team missing some information?
