+Vamp Test Plugin
+================
+
+This is a test plugin for use by developers who are working on host
+applications for Vamp plugins.
+
+Its primary purpose is to help you test that your host is correctly
+handling the output sample type and sample rate, as these are quite
+easily misinterpreted. (See http://vamp-plugins.org/ for more about
+Vamp plugins and http://vapm-plugins.org/guide.pdf for the programming
+guide which explains the output sample type and sample rate.)
+
+The plugin does no real work. It simply provides a variety of outputs
+with different output descriptors, and returns some test values. See
+https://code.soundsoftware.ac.uk/projects/vamp-test-plugin/wiki/Wiki
+for documentation of the outputs and features returned.
+
+If you are developing plugins rather than hosts, and you want help in
+testing them, look instead at the Vamp Plugin Tester
+(https://code.soundsoftware.ac.uk/projects/vamp-plugin-tester).
