+  <p>This directory contains a large array of small tests
+  that exercise various features of LLVM and to ensure that regressions do not
+  occur. The directory is broken into several sub-directories, each focused on
+  a particular area of LLVM. A few of the important ones are:<ul>
+    <li><tt>Analysis</tt>: checks Analysis passes.</li>
+    <li><tt>Archive</tt>: checks the Archive library.</li>
+    <li><tt>Assembler</tt>: checks Assembly reader/writer functionality.</li>
+    <li><tt>Bytecode</tt>: checks Bytecode reader/writer functionality.</li>
+    <li><tt>CodeGen</tt>: checks code generation and each target.</li>
+    <li><tt>Features</tt>: checks various features of the LLVM language.</li>
+    <li><tt>Linker</tt>: tests bytecode linking.</li>
+    <li><tt>Transforms</tt>: tests each of the scalar, IPO, and utility
+    transforms to ensure they make the right transformations.</li>
