+@subsection Ada Language Test Suites
+
+The Ada test suite includes executable tests from the ACATS 2.5 test
+suite, publicly available at @uref{http://www.adaic.org/compilers/acats/2.5}
+
+These tests are integrated in the GCC test suite in the
+@file{gcc/testsuite/ada/acats} directory, and
+enabled automatically when running @code{make check}, assuming
+the Ada language has been enabled when configuring GCC.
+
+You can also run the Ada test suite independently, using
+@code{make check-ada}, or run a subset of the tests by specifying which
+chapter to run, e.g:
+
+@smallexample
+$ make check-ada CHAPTERS="c3 c9"
+@end smallexample
+
+The tests are organized by directory, each directory corresponding to
+a chapter of the Ada Reference Manual. So for example, c9 corresponds
+to chapter 9, which deals with tasking features of the language.
+
+There is also an extra chapter called @file{gcc} containing a template for
+creating new executable tests.
+
+The tests are run using two 'sh' scripts: run_acats and run_all.sh
+To run the tests using a simulator or a cross target, see the small
+customization section at the top of run_all.sh
+
+These tests are run using the build tree: they can be run without doing
+a @code{make install}.
