+## A note on tests and required checks
+
+Most subject folders have their own mention in `.github/workflows/test.yml`.
+Open the file to see the beginning of it. It's manually maintained but
+it's important to point out two things:
+
+1. It's manually entered so creating a `src/foo/tests/*.js` doesn't
+   automatically start running those tests.
+1. When you add an entry to `.github/workflows/test.yml`, and it's
+   gone into `main`, don't forget to add it to the branch protection's
+   required checks.
