+The extended testsuite only works with UID=0. It contains of several
+subdirectories named "test/TEST-??-*", which are run one by one.
+
+To run the extended testsuite do the following:
+
+$ ninja -C build # Avoid building anything as root later
+$ sudo test/run-integration-tests.sh
+ninja: Entering directory `/home/zbyszek/src/systemd/build'
+ninja: no work to do.
+--x-- Running TEST-01-BASIC --x--
++ make -C TEST-01-BASIC BUILD_DIR=/home/zbyszek/src/systemd/build clean setup run
+make: Entering directory '/home/zbyszek/src/systemd/test/TEST-01-BASIC'
+TEST-01-BASIC CLEANUP: Basic systemd setup
+TEST-01-BASIC SETUP: Basic systemd setup
+...
+TEST-01-BASIC RUN: Basic systemd setup [OK]
+make: Leaving directory '/home/zbyszek/src/systemd/test/TEST-01-BASIC'
+--x-- Result of TEST-01-BASIC: 0 --x--
+--x-- Running TEST-02-CRYPTSETUP --x--
++ make -C TEST-02-CRYPTSETUP BUILD_DIR=/home/zbyszek/src/systemd/build clean setup run
+
+If one of the tests fails, then $subdir/test.log contains the log file of
+the test.
+
+To run just one of the cases:
+
+$ sudo make -C test/TEST-01-BASIC clean setup run
+
+Specifying the build directory
+==============================
+
+If the build directory is not detected automatically, it can be specified
+with BUILD_DIR=:
+
+$ sudo BUILD_DIR=some-other-build/ test/run-integration-tests
+
+or
+
+$ sudo make -C test/TEST-01-BASIC BUILD_DIR=../../some-other-build/ ...
+
+Note that in the second case, the path is relative to the test case directory.
+An absolute path may also be used in both cases.
+
+Configuration variables
+=======================
+
+TEST_NO_QEMU=1
+ Don't run tests under QEMU
+
+TEST_NO_NSPAWN=1
+ Don't run tests under systemd-nspawn
+
+TEST_NO_KVM=1
+ Disable QEMU KVM auto-detection (may be necessary when you're trying to run the
+ *vanilla* QEMU and have both qemu and qemu-kvm installed)
+
+TEST_NESTED_KVM=1
+ Allow tests to run with nested KVM. By default, the testsuite disables
+ nested KVM if the host machine already runs under KVM. Setting this
+ variable disables such checks
+
+QEMU_MEM=512M
+ Configure amount of memory for QEMU VMs (defaults to 512M)
+
+QEMU_SMP=1
+ Configure number of CPUs for QEMU VMs (defaults to 1)
+
+KERNEL_APPEND='...'
+ Append additional parameters to the kernel command line
+
+NSPAWN_ARGUMENTS='...'
+ Specify additional arguments for systemd-nspawn
+
+QEMU_TIMEOUT=infinity
+ Set a timeout for tests under QEMU (defaults to infinity)
+
+NSPAWN_TIMEOUT=infinity
+ Set a timeout for tests under systemd-nspawn (defaults to infinity)
+
+INTERACTIVE_DEBUG=1
+ Configure the machine to be more *user-friendly* for interactive debuggung
+ (e.g. by setting a usable default terminal, suppressing the shutdown after
+ the test, etc.)
+
+The kernel and initramfs can be specified with $KERNEL_BIN and $INITRD.
+(Fedora's or Debian's default kernel path and initramfs are used by default)
+
+A script will try to find your QEMU binary. If you want to specify a different
+one with $QEMU_BIN.
+
+Debugging the qemu image
+========================
+
+If you want to log in the testsuite virtual machine, you can specify additional
+kernel command line parameter with $KERNEL_APPEND and then log in as root.
+
+$ sudo make -C test/TEST-01-BASIC KERNEL_APPEND="systemd.unit=multi-user.target" run
+
+Root password is empty.
+
+Ubuntu CI
+=========
+
+New PR submitted to the project are run through regression tests, and one set
+of those is the 'autopkgtest' runs for several different architectures, called
+'Ubuntu CI'. Part of that testing is to run all these tests. Sometimes these
+tests are temporarily deny-listed from running in the 'autopkgtest' tests while
+debugging a flaky test; that is done by creating a file in the test directory
+named 'deny-list-ubuntu-ci', for example to prevent the TEST-01-BASIC test from
+running in the 'autopkgtest' runs, create the file
+'TEST-01-BASIC/deny-list-ubuntu-ci'.
+
+The tests may be disabled only for specific archs, by creating a deny-list file
+with the arch name at the end, e.g.
+'TEST-01-BASIC/deny-list-ubuntu-ci-arm64' to disable the TEST-01-BASIC test
+only on test runs for the 'arm64' architecture.
+
+Note the arch naming is not from 'uname -m', it is Debian arch names:
+https://wiki.debian.org/ArchitectureSpecificsMemo
+
+For PRs that fix a currently deny-listed test, the PR should include removal
+of the deny-list file.
+
+In case a test fails, the full set of artifacts, including the journal of the
+failed run, can be downloaded from the artifacts.tar.gz archive which will be
+reachable in the same URL parent directory as the logs.gz that gets linked on
+the Github CI status.
+
+To add new dependencies or new binaries to the packages used during the tests,
+a merge request can be sent to: https://salsa.debian.org/systemd-team/systemd
+targeting the 'upstream-ci' branch.
