+# CRIO Integration Tests
+
+Integration tests provide end-to-end testing of CRIO.
+
+Note that integration tests do **not** replace unit tests.
+
+As a rule of thumb, code should be tested thoroughly with unit tests.
+Integration tests on the other hand are meant to test a specific feature end
+to end.
+
+Integration tests are written in *bash* using the
+[bats](https://github.com/sstephenson/bats) framework.
+
+## Running integration tests
+
+### Containerized tests
+
+The easiest way to run integration tests is with Docker:
+```
+$ make integration
+```
+
+To run a single test bucket:
+```
+$ make integration TESTFLAGS="runtimeversion.bats"
+```
+
+### On your host
+
+To run the integration tests on your host, you will first need to setup a development environment plus
+[bats](https://github.com/sstephenson/bats#installing-bats-from-source)
+For example:
+```
+$ cd ~/go/src/github.com
+$ git clone https://github.com/sstephenson/bats.git
+$ cd bats
+$ ./install.sh /usr/local
+```
+
+You will also need to install the [CNI](https://github.com/containernetworking/cni) plugins as
+the the default pod test template runs without host networking:
+
+```
+$ go get github.com/containernetworking/cni
+$ cd "$GOPATH/src/github.com/containernetworking/cni"
+$ git checkout -q d4bbce1865270cd2d2be558d6a23e63d314fe769
+$ ./build.sh \
+$ mkdir -p /opt/cni/bin \
+$ cp bin/* /opt/cni/bin/
+```
+
+Then you can run the tests on your host:
+```
+$ sudo make localintegration
+```
+
+To run a single test bucket:
+```
+$ make localintegration TESTFLAGS="runtimeversion.bats"
+```
+
+Or you can just run them directly using bats
+```
+$ sudo bats test
+```
+
+#### Runtime selection
+Tests on the host will run with `runc` as the default runtime.
+However you can select other OCI compatible runtimes by setting
+the `RUNTIME` environment variable.
+
+For example one could use the [Clear Containers](https://github.com/01org/cc-oci-runtime/wiki/Installation)
+runtime instead of `runc`:
+
+```
+make localintegration RUNTIME=cc-oci-runtime
+```
+
+## Writing integration tests
+
+[Helper functions]
+(https://github.com/kubernetes-incubator/crio/blob/master/test/helpers.bash)
+are provided in order to facilitate writing tests.
+
+```sh
+#!/usr/bin/env bats
+
+# This will load the helpers.
+load helpers
+
+# setup is called at the beginning of every test.
+function setup() {
+}
+
+# teardown is called at the end of every test.
+function teardown() {
+ cleanup_test
+}
+
+@test "crioctl runtimeversion" {
+ start_crio
+ crioctl runtimeversion
+ [ "$status" -eq 0 ]
+}
+
+```
