+	Development and testing
+	=======================
+	
+	Development and test workflow with `Test Kitchen <http://kitchen.ci>`_ and
+	`kitchen-salt <https://github.com/simonmcc/kitchen-salt>`_ provisioner plugin.
+	
+	Test Kitchen is a test harness tool to execute your configured code on one or more platforms in isolation.
+	There is a ``.kitchen.yml`` in main directory that defines *platforms* to be tested and *suites* to execute on them.
+	
+	Kitchen CI can spin instances locally or remote, based on used *driver*.
+	For local development ``.kitchen.yml`` defines a `vagrant <https://github.com/test-kitchen/kitchen-vagrant>`_ or
+	`docker  <https://github.com/test-kitchen/kitchen-docker>`_ driver.
+	
+	To use backend drivers or implement your CI follow the section `INTEGRATION.rst#Continuous Integration`__.
+	
+	A listing of scenarios to be executed:
+	
+	.. code-block:: shell
+	
+	  $ kitchen list
+	
+	  Instance                    Driver   Provisioner  Verifier  Transport  Last Action
+	
+EOF
+
+echo "$KITCHEN_LIST" | sed 's/^/  /' >> README.*
+
+cat >> README.* <<-\EOF
+	
+	The `Busser <https://github.com/test-kitchen/busser>`_ *Verifier* is used to setup and run tests
+	implementated in `<repo>/test/integration`. It installs the particular driver to tested instance
+	(`Serverspec <https://github.com/neillturner/kitchen-verifier-serverspec>`_,
+	`InSpec <https://github.com/chef/kitchen-inspec>`_, Shell, Bats, ...) prior the verification is executed.
+	
+	
+	Usage:
+	
+	.. code-block:: shell
+	
+	 # list instances and status
+	 kitchen list
+	
+	 # manually execute integration tests
+	 kitchen [test || [create|converge|verify|exec|login|destroy|...]] [instance] -t tests/integration
+	
+	 # use with provided Makefile (ie: within CI pipeline)
+	 make kitchen
