Abstract
We introduce a degree of non-randomness using a test concept.
The degree implies a notion of an optimal Martin-L\”of test, which is different from a universal test.
In the latter half we generalize Solovay reducibility.
Solovay reducibility is a measure of relative randomness between two reals.
We introduce uniform solovay reducibility, which is a measure of relative randomness between two sequences of reals.
Finally we prove that a sequence is uniform Solovay complete iff it is the sequence of measures of an optimal Martin-L\”of test.
