+## Running tests
+
+There is a [`./run_tests`](./run_tests) helper script for quickly invoking all
+of our unittests.  The coverage isn't great currently, but it should still be
+run for all commits.
+
+Adding more unittests for changes you make would be greatly appreciated :).
+Check out the [tests/](./tests/) subdirectory for more details.
