+### To Test
+
+Testing requires DB's created. Brooklyn blueprints are one good way to do this.
+
+To test quickly locally, you can also use:
+
+    docker run -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=password -e MYSQL_ROOT_HOST=172.17.0.1 -P -d mysql/mysql-server:latest
+    docker ps   # note the port, and use that below, eg 32771
+    mysql -u root -ppassword -h 127.0.0.1 -P 32771
+
+In MySQL, create a DB, e.g. `create database foo` (or even [this demo](http://www.wikihow.com/Create-a-Database-in-MySQL)), 
+and then you're ready to go; use the data above to create a blueprint.
+
+Note you may need to pay attention to the CF-accessible IP address when you do the actual test -- 
+hence the use of the `172.*` address above (for Docker; if registering with PCF Dev you need to use 
+the interface it sees in your actual blueprint, e.g. `192.168.11.1`).
