+# Tests
+
+openapi-cop uses Mocha to define tests. Test files are `/test/*.test.ts` and are executed in alphabetical
+order.
+
+* 📄 **01.unit.test.ts** -- test ability to read OpenAPI documents.
+* 📄 **01.integration.test.ts** -- tests validation of requests/responses with different configurations.
+
+## Adding tests
+
+In the most simple and common scenario, adding a test just means
+
+1. adding one new OpenAPI file to the `/test/schemas/` directory, and
+2. adding additional test data to `/test/test-requests/` or `/test/test-responses/`.
+
+In general, do not modify or delete existing tests, schemas or test requests/responses. Add new
+tests/schemas/requests/responses instead.
+
+### Adding schemas
+
+When adding a new test OpenAPI file to `schemas/` keep in mind the following:
+
+* Equivalent v2 and v3 OpenAPI documents are provided.
+* A ['operationId'](https://spec.openapis.org/oas/v3.1.0#operation-object) is set for every operation. Otherwise, the
+  mock server is not able to generate mock
+  responses, nor is a validator created for the given operation.
+* Files that are referenced locally (with a JSON-schema reference '$ref') should be placed in the `/schemas/refs/`
+  folder.
+
+## Debugging tests
+
+When debugging tests, it is helpful to use the script `dev-start-along-mock` to run openapi-cop along with a mock server
+that are both based on a given OpenAPI file, e.g.
+
+````bash
+npm run dev-start-along-mock -- test/schemas/v3/3-parameters.yaml
+````
+
+The mock server uses the "examples" from the OpenAPI document to produce responses.
+
+If you wish to start openapi-cop and a mock server that is based on a different OpenAPI document, you can use
+the `dev-start` scripts:
+
+````bash
+# From the base directory
+npm run dev-start -- some-openapi.yaml # runs on port 8889
+(cd mock-server && npm run dev-start -- another-openapi.yaml) # runs on port 9000
+````
