 #### Testing Changes
 
 - Never run `make check` because it's too expansive
-- Run `./snapraid test` for the regression test
-- The `test` and `selftest` suites (in `cmdline/selftest.c` and `./snapraid test`) must be strictly memory-only without creating files or performing filesystem I/O
-- If running the speed benchmark (`./snapraid -T`), always use `--speed-test-period 100` (e.g. `./snapraid -T --speed-test-period 100`) to run it faster
