 A test usually defines a grammar, optionally some attributes and a Test class.
 It then normally runs RelAST followed by JastAdd.

 ## Specification
 
 Here, the grammar and attributes to be compiled are contained.
 Use `src/test/jastadd/$YourTestName` as directory to put your files into.
-All generated `*.ast`, `*.jrag` and `ResolverStubs.jrag` are already ignored by the main `.gitignore`.

 Usually, all files are generated into a separate directory in `src/test/java-gen/`.
 This location can be [configured](#build-configuration).

 ## Output diff
 
 Currently, there is one test to test whether the output of RelAST is a valid input for RelAST and produces the same output again.
-To achieve this, there two Gradle tasks. The first produces the usual `.ast` and `.jadd` files, whereas the second task takes the `.ast` as input.

 The test then ensures, that both output grammars are identical.
