+# Running tests
+
+Tests can be run from your favourite IDE, or from the command-line using Maven. Simply run the tests and the framework
+does the rest.
+
+## Configuring the test framework
+
+When running tests there are a few things than be configured:
+
+* Server type
+* Database type
+* Browser type
+
+There are a few options on how to configure the test framework, with the following ordinal:
+
+* System properties
+* Environment variables
+* `.env.test` file in the project hierarchy
+* A properties file specified with `kc.test.config` system property or `KC_TEST_CONFIG` environment variable
+
+For more details about the test framework, see the [README](README.md).
+
+### Using system properties
+
+This is not the most convenient way as it is both cumbersome to set system properties when running tests from the IDE,
+or when running tests using Maven.
+
+For Maven see [Maven Surefire Plugin documentation](https://maven.apache.org/surefire/maven-surefire-plugin/examples/system-properties.html) on how to
+set system properties when using the Surefire plugin to run tests. A brief example would look something like:
+
+```xml
+
+
+
+ org.apache.maven.plugins
+ maven-surefire-plugin
+
+
+ firefox
+
+
+
+
+
+```
+
+### Using environment variables
+
+When running tests from the CLI using environment variables is the recommended way. For example:
+
+```shell
+KC_TEST_BROWSER=firefox mvn test
+```
+
+As with system properties, using environment variables within the IDE can be cumbersome.
+
+### Using `.env.test` file
+
+When running tests from an IDE using the `.env.test` file is very convenient, especially as this can be added to `.gitignore`
+allowing developers to quickly have their own personal preference when running tests.
+
+Example `.env.test` file:
+
+```
+KC_TEST_BROWSER=firefox
+```
+
+For multi-modal Maven projects the `.env.test` file can be located in the current module, or one of its parent modules.
+This allows sharing configuration across multiple test modules.
+
+### Using a properties file
+
+Using a property file allows creating a set of configuration which can be committed to a Git repository to be shareable.
+
+For example create the file `/path/mytestconfig.properties` with the following contents:
+
+```
+kc.test.browser=firefox
+kc.test.server=remote
+```
+
+Then run tests with:
+
+```shell
+KC_TEST_CONFIG=/path/mytestconfig.properties mvn test
+```
+
