+This test is for Windows only!
+
+The cli test uses .NET assemblies:
+cli_types.dll,
+cli_basetypes.dll,
+cli_ure.dll,
+cli_cppuhelper.dll.
+
+
+When an office is properly installed then these assemblies can be found in the
+global assembly cache (GAC), for example in c:\windows\assembly.
+
+When the test is run then the assemblies are used from the GAC. That is
+one has to make sure that one has the respective office installed.
+
+The test can also be run without an installed office. Then the assemblies are used
+which reside next to the executable. The testtools project copies the assemblies from
+the build environment into the wntmscixx\bin folder.
+
+However, if for some reason an assembly remains in the GAC than it is used no matter
+what.
+
+
+The qa test simply executes the cli_bridgetest_inprocess.exe. All console output is discarded.
+When the test fails one should directly run that executable. Then one may see the cause
+of the failure in the console.
