 # testframework
-A shell script based test framework
+
+The test script is a framework for the control of test case execution.
+
+To learn more start with execution of help and man:
+
+./bin/runTTF --help
+
+and
+
+./bin/runTTF --man
+
+In directory samples you can see the Test Collection ANewTest, which is a sample for a basic Test Collection
+
+It is recommended to enter the location of the test framework into your PATH like:
+
+export PATH="<location of test framework>/bin:$PATH"
