[swift-users] what's in the file of .swiftmodule?how to open it?

[Jordan Rose]

I don't think swift-ide-test is installed by default, but it should still be in your build directory. It's part of the "tools" component if you want to customize your install components.

There's some more information available in Serialization.rst <https://github.com/apple/swift/blob/master/docs/Serialization.rst> in the compiler docs.
