We consider such types to be "aliases", alias types are represented by the [`TyKind::Alias`][tykind_alias] variant, with the kind of alias tracked by the [`AliasTyKind`][aliaskind] enum.

 The Rust project runs a wide variety of different tests, orchestrated by the
 build system (`./x test`). This section gives a brief overview of the different
 testing tools. Subsequent chapters dive into [running tests](running.md) and

 You can run the entire test collection using `x`. But note that running the
 *entire* test collection is almost never what you want to do during local
 development because it takes a really long time. For local development, see the

 The compiler has a lot of [`debug!`] (or `trace!`) calls, which print out logging information

 The key observation here is that the Rust trait system is basically a
 kind of logic, and it can be mapped onto standard logical inference
 rules. We can then look for solutions to those inference rules in a

 ## Typing Environments
 
 When interacting with the type system there are a few variables to consider that can affect the results of trait solving. The set of in-scope where clauses, and what phase of the compiler type system operations are being performed in (the [`ParamEnv`][penv] and [`TypingMode`][tmode] structs respectively).

 # Walkthrough: a typical contribution

 There are _a lot_ of ways to contribute to the Rust compiler, including fixing
 bugs, improving performance, helping design features, providing feedback on
 existing features, etc. This chapter does not claim to scratch the surface.
