+## Engine Unit Tests
+
+### Location and Framework
+
+Tests are in `M2/Macaulay2/e/unit-tests/` using **GoogleTest** (gtest).
+
+### Key Files
+
+- `testMain.cpp` - Test entry point; calls `IM2_initialize()` then `RUN_ALL_TESTS()`
+- `M2-cpp-replacement.cpp` - Stub for `system_interrupted()` (avoids linking interpreter)
+- `ARingTest.hpp` - Templated test helpers for arithmetic ring operations (negate, add,
+  subtract, multiply, divide, reciprocal, power, axioms, coercions)
+- `RingTest.hpp` - Test helpers for Ring interface
+- `DMatTest.hpp` - Test helpers for dense matrices
+- `RingElem.hpp/cpp` - Lightweight value-semantics wrapper for ring elements (see below)
+- `util-polyring-creation.hpp/cpp` - Helpers for creating rings in tests:
+  - `simplePolynomialRing(p, names)` - polynomial ring over ZZ/p (or QQ if p=0)
+  - `simpleWeylAlgebra(p, names, comms, derivs)` - Weyl algebra
+  - `degreeRing(n)` - degree ring with n variables

+
+### Excluded Test Files
+
+| Test File | Why Excluded |
+|-----------|-------------|
+| `ARingGFTest.cpp` | ARingGFFlint API changed: constructor now requires `PolynomialRing` + primitive element (was `(int p, int n)`), and `cardinality()` method is missing |
+
+### Linking Requirements
+
+The unit tests link against the M2 engine library. The only additional file needed is
+`M2-cpp-replacement.cpp`, which stubs out `system_interrupted()` — a function normally
+supplied by the Macaulay2 executable. `testMain.cpp` calls `IM2_initialize()` to
+handle engine initialization (including GC).
+
+### Writing New Tests
+
+Pattern for arithmetic ring tests (standalone `TEST` macros):
+```cpp
+#include <gtest/gtest.h>
+#include "aring-zz-flint.hpp"  // or whichever ring
+#include "ARingTest.hpp"        // templated test helpers
+
+TEST(MyRing, create) {
+  M2::ARingZZ R;
+  // ... test ring properties
+}
+
+TEST(MyRing, arithmetic) {
+  M2::ARingZZ R;
+  testCoercions(R);
+  testNegate(R, ntrials);
+  testAdd(R, ntrials);
+  // ...
+}
+```
+
+Pattern for tests using polynomial rings (use `util-polyring-creation.hpp`):
+```cpp
+#include "util-polyring-creation.hpp"
+const PolynomialRing* R = simplePolynomialRing(101, {"a", "b", "c"});
+const WeylAlgebra* W = simpleWeylAlgebra(0, {"x","y","Dx","Dy"}, {0,1}, {2,3});
+```
+
+Pattern for test fixtures with shared setup (use `TEST_F`):
+```cpp
+class MyTest : public ::testing::Test {
+ protected:
+  SomeRing* R = nullptr;
+  void SetUp() override {
+    R = /* create ring */;
+  }
+};
+
+TEST_F(MyTest, someTest) {
+  // R is available here, freshly created for each test
+}
+```
+
+### Testing Private/Protected Members
+
+Use the friend class pattern. Add `friend class FooTestAccessor;` to the class header,
+then define a test accessor in the test file with static forwarding methods:
+```cpp
+// In the .hpp file:
+class Foo {
+  friend class FooTestAccessor;
+  // ...
+};
+
+// In the test .cpp file:
+class FooTestAccessor {
+ public:
+  static int privateMethod(const Foo* f, int arg) {
+    return f->privateMethod(arg);
+  }
+};
+```
+See `WeylAlgebraTest.cpp` and `weylalg.hpp` for a concrete example.
+
+### RingElem — Lightweight Value Wrapper for Tests
+
+`RingElem` (in `unit-tests/RingElem.hpp`) wraps `const Ring*` + `ring_elem` with
+value semantics. Operators return values (not pointers), making test code concise:
+```cpp
+#include "RingElem.hpp"
+auto x  = RingElem::var(R, 0);
+auto y  = RingElem::var(R, 1);
+auto one = RingElem::fromInt(R, 1);
+EXPECT_EQ(x * y - y * x, one);     // value comparison, prints elements on failure
+
+// Parse from string (requires explicit ^ and * in polynomial syntax):
+auto f = RingElem::fromString(R, "x^2+3*x*y-1");
+
+// Scalar multiplication:
+auto g = x * 3;       // RingElem * long
+auto h = 3 * x;       // long * RingElem
+```
+
+Factories: `RingElem::var(R, i)`, `RingElem::fromInt(R, n)`, `RingElem::fromString(R, s)`.
+Arithmetic: `+`, `-`, `*`, `/`, unary `-`, `.power(n)`.
+Output: `to_string()`, `operator<<` for gtest diagnostics.
+
+**fromString format**: Uses `parseBasicPoly` from `BasicPoly.hpp`. Requires `*` between
+factors and `^` for exponents (e.g. `"3*x^2*y-1"`). Note: `to_string()` outputs a
+different format (`x2y-1` without `*` or `^`), so round-tripping is not yet supported.
+
+**Naming convention**: Member fields use `m` prefix (e.g., `mRing`, `mValue`).
+
+### RingElement (Legacy Interface)
+
+`RingElement` operators (`*`, `+`, `-`, `/`) return `RingElement*` (pointers), not values.
+Prefer `RingElem` for new test code. `RingElement` is still used in the interpreter interface.
+```cpp
+RingElement *x = new RingElement(W, W->var(0));
+RingElement *product = (*x) * (*y);   // dereference, then multiply
+EXPECT_TRUE(product->is_equal(*expected));
+```
+`is_equal` checks ring pointer equality first — both elements must come from the same
+ring object. Use `IM2_Ring_QQ()` (QQGMP) consistently, not `rawARingQQFlint()`, when
+creating rings whose elements will be compared.
+
+### M2_arrayint in Tests
+
+Many engine functions take `M2_arrayint` (a GC-allocated array). Convert from
+`std::vector<int>` using:
+```cpp
+#include "util.hpp"
+M2_arrayint arr = stdvector_to_M2_arrayint(std::vector<int>{2, 3, 5});
+```
+
+## Building and Running Tests
+
+Build configurations are defined in `M2/BUILD/mike/Makefile`. Existing builds live
+under `M2/BUILD/mike/builds.tmp/`.
+
+### CMake Build
+
+The active cmake build directory is:
+`M2/BUILD/mike/builds.tmp/cmake-appleclang` (RelWithDebInfo, Ninja)
+
+```sh
+# Build unit tests:
+ninja -C M2/BUILD/mike/builds.tmp/cmake-appleclang M2-unit-tests
+
+# Run all engine unit tests:
+ctest --test-dir M2/BUILD/mike/builds.tmp/cmake-appleclang -R unit-tests
+
+# Run a specific test by name:
+ctest --test-dir M2/BUILD/mike/builds.tmp/cmake-appleclang -R "WeylAlgebra" --output-on-failure
+
+# Or run the executable directly:
+M2/BUILD/mike/builds.tmp/cmake-appleclang/Macaulay2/e/M2-unit-tests
+# With a gtest filter:
+M2/BUILD/mike/builds.tmp/cmake-appleclang/Macaulay2/e/M2-unit-tests --gtest_filter="WeylAlgebra*"
+```
+
+The CMake build uses `gtest_discover_tests()` with prefix `unit-tests:`.
+
+### Autotools Build
+
+The active autotools build directory is:
+`M2/BUILD/mike/builds.tmp/arm64-appleclang`
+
+```sh
+# From the autotools build directory, in Macaulay2/e/unit-tests/:
+gmake -k check
+# Or run the executable directly:
+./testMain
+```
+
+If `e/unit-tests/Makefile.in` changes, regenerate the build Makefile:
+```sh
+# From the autotools build root:
+./config.status Macaulay2/e/unit-tests/Makefile
+```
+
+### Adding a New Test File
+
+1. Add the `.cpp` file to `e/unit-tests/`
+2. Add it to `e/CMakeLists.txt` in the `add_executable(M2-unit-tests ...)` section
+3. Add it to `e/unit-tests/Makefile.files` in the `UNITTEST_CCFILES` list
+4. Build and run tests in **both** cmake and autotools to verify
+
+### Keeping Builds in Sync
+
+The CMake and autotools builds maintain separate lists of test files:
+- CMake: `e/CMakeLists.txt` — the `add_executable(M2-unit-tests ...)` block
+- Autotools: `e/unit-tests/Makefile.files` — the `UNITTEST_CCFILES` variable
+
+Both should include the same set of test files. Currently 199 tests pass in both builds.
+
+## Engine Dependencies
+
+All of the following are linked to the `M2-engine` target (see `e/CMakeLists.txt`).
+
+### Submodule Dependencies (built as part of engine)
+- **memtailor** - Special-purpose memory allocators
+- **mathic** - Symbolic algebra data structures
+- **mathicgb** - Signature Groebner bases library
+- **googletest** - Unit testing framework (for M2-unit-tests only)
+
+### Header-Only Libraries
+- **Eigen3** (3.4.0+) - Linear algebra templates
+
+### Libraries (found via pkg-config)
+- **FFLAS_FFPACK** (2.4.3+) - Finite field linear algebra routines (needs LAPACK, GIVARO)
+- **GIVARO** (4.1.1+) - Prime field and algebraic computations
+
+### Libraries (found via find_package / FindXxx.cmake)
+- **GMP** (6.0.0+) - GNU multiprecision arithmetic
+- **MPFR** (4.0.1+) - Multiprecision floating-point (needs GMP)
+- **MPFI** (1.5.1+) - Multiprecision floating-point intervals (needs GMP, MPFR)
+- **FLINT** (3.0.0+) - Fast library for number theory (needs GMP, MPFR)
+- **NTL** (10.5.0+) - Number theory library (needs GMP)
+- **FACTORY** (4.4.0+) - Polynomial factorization (needs GMP, FLINT, NTL)

+- **NORMALIZ** (3.8.0+) - Discrete convex geometry (needs GMP, Nauty)
+Note: READLINE, HISTORY, and GDBM are in the top-level `LIBRARY_LIST` but are only
+used by the interpreter (`d/`), not the engine.
+
+### Optional
+- **OpenMP** - Parallel processing
+
+## Code Conventions
+
+- C++17 standard (`-std=gnu++17`)
+- Arithmetic ring types live in `M2` namespace (e.g., `M2::ARingZZ`, `M2::ARingZZp`)
+- Ring elements use init/clear pattern: `R.init(a); ... R.clear(a);`
+- `buffer` class (from `buffer.hpp`) used for string building and text output
+- Interface functions prefixed with `IM2_` (e.g., `IM2_initialize()`)
+- Source files generally come in `.cpp`/`.hpp` pairs
+- Use `IM2_Ring_QQ()` for the rationals (QQGMP) in tests, not `rawARingQQFlint()`
+- New classes should use `m` prefix for member fields (e.g., `mRing`, `mValue`)
+
+## Branch Info
+
+- Current branch: `unit-testing` (improving engine unit test infrastructure)
+- PR target: `stable`
