+For testing the vcardparser there are some test files and a small testsuite
+automatically checking for regressions. The tests directory contains some vCard
+files and correpsonding reference output files (with an additional ".ref"
+suffix). For running the geression test do "make check". This will compile some
+test programs, parse the test files, write them out as vCard again and compare
+the output to the reference file. The check fails, if there are unexpected
+differences and shows which lines differed.
+
+For creating a new test put a vCard file to be parsed into the tests directory.
+Create a reference file by running "testread" on the test file. It will put out
+the parsed data as vCard again on stdout. Carefully check the output, manually
+correct any errors and save the result as reference file in the tests directory.
+Now add the filename to the TESTFILES variable in Makefile.am and run "make
+check". If the check fails adapt the reference file or fix the bugs in the
+parser, whatever is appropriate.
