 #### Crater and crates.io
 
+[Crater] is a bot that will compile all crates.io crates and many
+public github repos with the compiler with your changes. A report will then be
+generated with crates that ceased to compile with or began to compile with your
+changes. Crater runs can take a few days to complete.
+
+[Crater]: ./tests/crater.md
+
 We should always do a crater run to assess impact. It is polite and considerate
 to at least notify the authors of affected crates the breaking change. If we can
 submit PRs to fix the problem, so much the better.
