+## `gsd-parser` regression testsuite
+You can place arbitrary `*.gsd` files in this directory to run `gsd-parser` regression tests against them.
+
+**Careful**: You will need to `cargo clean` before the testsuite picks up new files.
+
+The regression tests are implemented using [insta](https://insta.rs/) — check its documentation for details on usage.
