The `random` binary sensor platform is creating random states (`true`, 1, `on` or `false`, 0, `off`). This can be useful if you want to test automation rules. It generates a new state every time it is polled.
## {% linkable_title Configuration %}
To enable the random binary sensor, add the following lines to your `configuration.yaml` file:
```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
binary_sensor:
- platform: random
```
{% configuration %}

The `random` sensor platform is creating random sensor values (integers) out of a given range. Returned values form a [discrete uniform distribution](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discrete_uniform_distribution), meaning that each integer value in the range configured is equally likely to be drawn. This can be useful if you want to test automation rules. It generates a new value every time it is polled.
