Gerbicz error checking
Gerbicz error checking is a technique to verify validity of primality tests. It was proposed by Robert Gerbicz at MersenneForum in August 2017.
Among GIMPS clients, the technique is used to ensure validity of PRP tests for Mersenne numbers:
It is also used by LLR and LLR2 to ensure validity of Proth tests and PRP tests on base-2 Riesel prime candidates, and by those programs and PRST in an extended version for PRP tests on additional number forms.
