+Graphical Test Hash Index
+*************************
+
+The iris test suite produces plots of data using matplotlib and cartopy.
+The images produced are compared to known "good" output, the images for
+which are kept in `scitools/test-iris-imagehash <https://github.com/scitools/test-iris-imagehash>`_.
+
+For an overview of iris' graphics tests, see :ref:`testing.graphics`
+
+Typically running the iris test suite will output the rendered
+images to ``$PROJECT_DIR/iris_image_test_output``.
+The known good output for each test can be seen at the links below
+for comparison.
