+### Testing
+
+The repository contains an integration test suite based on the [nginx-tests].
+The following command will build the module and run the tests:
+
+```sh
+# Path to the nginx source checkout, defaults to ../nginx if not specified.
+export NGINX_SOURCE_DIR=$(realpath ../nginx)
+# Path to the nginx-tests checkout; defaults to ../nginx/tests if not specified.

+
+Most of the tests require [pebble] test server binary in the path, or in a
+location specified via `TEST_NGINX_PEBBLE_BINARY` environment variable.
