+## Test natively on your host
+
+If you want to use the **afb-test** binding natively on your host, you have to
+install it. Then *pkg-config* tool can find the **afb-test.pc** and you can
+use **afm-test** launcher:
+
+```bash
+sudo make install
+# Eventually set PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if not installed in the
+# system directory
+export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=<path-to-pkgconfig-dir>:${PKG_CONFIG_PATH}
+# The same for the PATH environment variable where afm-test has been installed
+export PATH=<path-to-afm-test-dir>:${PATH}
+```
+
+Then you can test other binding using the **afm-test** launcher. Example here,
+with another binding project using **app-templates** submodule or the
+**cmake-apps-module** CMake module:
+
+> **Note** CMake module is the new way to use **app-templates**

+```bash

+cmake ..

+## Build the test widget
+
+### Using CMake Apps module or app-templates
+
+> **Note** the CMake module is the new way to use **app-templates**
+
+To launch tests on a target board, you need to build a test widget. Using the
+SDK, you only have to set the variable *BUILD_TEST_WGT=TRUE* when configuring
+the project.
+
+Example from another project than **afb-test**:
+
+```bash
+mkdir build
+cd build
+cmake -DBUILD_TEST_WGT=TRUE ..
+make
+make widget
+```
+
+### Without using CMake Apps module or app-templates
+
+Like you'd build a regular widget create a directory where you'll put your tests
+materials: LUA tests, configuration and fixture files.
+
+Then create in that directory a **bin** directory where you'll put this
+[script](https://gerrit.automotivelinux.org/gerrit/gitweb?p=apps/app-templates.git;a=blob_plain;f=test-widget/launcher.sh.in;h=005c43357db3daa71b66d95d2486cd13f5cee482;hb=refs/heads/master) and name it **launcher**. To finish, you'll also need a
+widget configuration file. You can use the example provided [here](https://gerrit.automotivelinux.org/gerrit/gitweb?p=apps/app-templates.git;a=blob_plain;f=test-widget/test-config.xml.in;hb=refs/heads/master) and edit it
+to fit your needs by replacing the variables surrounded by **@** characters.
+
+Example from another project than **afb-test**:
+
+```bash
+cd build
+BUILDDIR="$(pwd)"
+mkdir -p package-test/bin
+cd package-test
+wget https://gerrit.automotivelinux.org/gerrit/gitweb?p=apps/app-templates.git;a=blob_plain;f=test-widget/launcher.sh.in;h=005c43357db3daa71b66d95d2486cd13f5cee482;hb=refs/heads/master -O bin/launcher
+wget https://gerrit.automotivelinux.org/gerrit/gitweb?p=apps/app-templates.git;a=blob_plain;f=test-widget/test-config.xml.in;hb=refs/heads/master -O config.xml
+vim config.xml
+```
+
+Then once your widget content directory is complete, use **wgtpkg-pack** utility
+to create the test widget.
+
+```bash
+cd ${BUILDDIR}
+wgtpkg-pack -f -o <project_name>-test.wgt package-test
+```
+
+## Run the test widget on the target
+
+Once built you can send the wgt file to your target board and launch the tests
+using **afm-test** as follow:
+
+```bash
+afm-test <path-to-your-test.wgt>
+```
+
+**afm-test** installs the test wgt file, then runs it and uninstalls it.
+
+> **CAUTION**: Be cautious to not specify a regular widget's app, else it will
+> be uninstalled at the end of the operation. So, if it was an important
+> service/binding, others bindings or apps relying on it won't work.
