This page is an index. The testing reference is documented on six pages, one
per reader job. Open the page that matches your task.

| Page                                                           | Read it when                                                                       |
| -------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| [Run tests locally](/reference/test/local)                     | The routine local order, the core command table, and the local PR gate.            |
| [Control UI, TUI, and E2E lanes](/reference/test/lanes)        | Control UI, TUI, extension, Gateway, and live lane commands and fixture rules.     |
| [Docker test suites](/reference/test/docker)                   | The weighted Docker scheduler, its knobs, and the notable Docker lanes.            |
| [Test performance and benchmarks](/reference/test/performance) | Import profiling, CPU and heap profiles, shard timings, and the benchmark scripts. |
| [Test runner internals](/reference/test/runner-internals)      | Shared build locks, isolated test state and homes, and JSON report merging.        |
| [Remote test proof](/reference/test/remote-proof)              | When agents use Crabbox or Testbox, and the wrapper, lease, and trust rules.       |

## Where each section moved

Every section heading from the previous single-page version keeps its anchor
here, so an existing link such as `/reference/test#core-commands` still
resolves. Each entry points at the page that now holds the content.
