+Running the Integration Tests
+=============================
+
+Synapse is accompanied by `SyTest <https://github.com/matrix-org/sytest>`_,
+a Matrix homeserver integration testing suite, which uses HTTP requests to
+access the API as a Matrix client would. It is able to run Synapse directly from
+the source tree, so installation of the server is not required.
+
+Testing with SyTest is recommended for verifying that changes related to the
+Client-Server API are functioning correctly. See the `installation instructions
+<https://github.com/matrix-org/sytest#installing>`_ for details.
