+# burn_in_tags
+
+## What it is
+
+Similar to [burn_in_tests](burn_in_tests.md), `burn_in_tags` also detects the javascript tests
+(under the [jstests directory](https://github.com/mongodb/mongo/tree/master/jstests))
+that are new or have changed since the last git command and then runs those tests in repeated
+mode to validate their stability. But instead of running the tests on their original build
+variants, `burn_in_tags` runs them on the burn_in build variants that are generated separately.
+
+## How to use it
+
+You can use `burn_in_tags` on evergreen by selecting the `burn_in_tags_gen` task when creating a patch.
+The burn_in build variants, i.e., `enterprise-rhel-80-64-bit-inmem` and `enterprise-rhel-80-64-bit-multiversion`
+will be generated, each of which will have a `burn_in_tests` task generated by the
+[mongo-task-generator](https://github.com/mongodb/mongo-task-generator). `burn_in_tests` task, a
+[generated task](task_generation.md), may have multiple sub-tasks which run the test suites only for the
+new or changed javascript tests (note that a javascript test can be included in multiple test suites). Each of
+those tests will be run 2 times minimum, and 1000 times maximum or for 10 minutes, whichever is reached first.
