+### Modules
+
+Test262 includes tests for ECMAScript 2015 module code, denoted by the "module"
+metadata flag. Files bearing a name ending in `_FIXTURE.js` should not be
+interpreted as standalone tests; they are intended to be referenced by test
+files.
+
+All module specifiers used by Test262 begin with the character sequence `./`.
+The remaining characters should be interpreted as the name of a file within the
+same directory as the file under test. The contents of this file must be
+interpreted as UTF-8-encoded text and supplied to the Source Text Module
+Record's ParseModule abstract operation. The result of that operation must be
+returned by the implementation-defined HostResolveImportedModule directly.
+
+For example, consider a test file located at
+`test/language/import/nested/index.js` with the following contents:
+
+```js
+import * as ns from './dep.js';
+```
+
+Implementers should attempt to resolve this module specifier by loading a file
+located at `test/language/import/nested/dep.js`.
