+## Running the tests
+
+To run the tests run the command `go test` from within the exercise directory.
+
+If the test suite contains benchmarks, you can run these with the `--bench` and `--benchmem`
+flags:
+
+ go test -v --bench . --benchmem
+
+Keep in mind that each reviewer will run benchmarks on a different machine, with
+different specs, so the results from these benchmark tests may vary.
+
+## Submitting your solution
+
+You can submit your solution using the `exercism submit run_length_encoding.go` command.
+This command will upload your solution to the Exercism website and print the solution page's URL.
+
+It's possible to submit an incomplete solution which allows you to:
+
