Description

While reviewing https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/50302 i noticed that these test folders aren't mentioned in the testing chapter at all. Since the linked PR adds a special configuration flag to the rustdoc-js tests, it would be worth mentioning it in the testing guide.

Start with the testing chapter and compare its coverage with the rustdoc-ui and rustdoc-js test folders. Review the linked pull request for the special rustdoc-js configuration flag, then update the guide so both test folders and that flag are documented.
