 #### The edition directive
 
-The `//@ edition` directive can take an exact edition, a bounded half-open range of editions or a left-bounded half-open range of editions, this affects which edition is used by `./x test` to run the test. For example:

-- A test with the `//@ edition: 2018` directive will only run under the 2018 edition.
-- A test with the `//@ edition: 2015..2021` directive can be run under both the 2015 and 2018 editions. However, CI will only run the test with the lowest edition possible (2015 in this case).
-- A test with the `//@ edition: 2018..` directive will run under any edition greater or equal than 2018. However, CI will only run the test with the lowest edition possible (2018 in this case).
