+> **Note**: The default value of `pageExtensions` is [`['tsx', 'ts', 'jsx', 'js']`](https://github.com/vercel/next.js/blob/04f37d0978e5fc9939012c1d771ef4e6535e7787/packages/next/next-server/server/config-shared.ts#L43).
+
 > **Note**: configuring `pageExtensions` also affects `_document.js`, `_app.js` as well as files under `pages/api/`. For example, setting `pageExtensions: ['page.tsx', 'page.ts']` means the following files: `_document.tsx`, `_app.tsx`, `pages/users.tsx` and `pages/api/users.ts` will have to be renamed to `_document.page.tsx`, `_app.page.tsx`, `pages/users.page.tsx` and `pages/api/users.page.ts` respectively.
 
+## Including non-page files in the `pages` directory
+
+To colocate test files, generated files, or other files used by components in the `pages` directory, you can prefix the extensions with something like `page`. 
+
+Open `next.config.js` and add the `pageExtensions` config:
+
+```js
+module.exports = {
+  pageExtensions: ['page.tsx', 'page.ts', 'page.jsx', 'page.js'],
+}
+```
+
+Then rename your pages to have a file extension that includes `.page` (ex. rename `MyPage.tsx` to `MyPage.page.tsx`).
+
+> **Note**: As mentioned in the note above, make sure you also rename `_document.js`, `_app.js` as well as files under `pages/api/`.
+
+Without this config, when building the production bundle, Next.js will throw an error like this if there are non component files in the `pages` directory:
+
+```
+Build error occurred
+Error: Build optimization failed: found pages without a React Component as default export in 
+pages/MyPage.generated
+pages/MyPage.test
+
+See https://err.sh/vercel/next.js/page-without-valid-component for more info.
