 ```
 The `$user_prefix` is usually your dockerhub user id.
 
+### Testing
+Install dependencies from the root directory on $OPENWHISK_HOME repository
+```
+./gradlew install
+```
 
+Using gradle for the ActionContainer tests you need to use a proxy if running on Mac, if Linux then don't use proxy options
+You can pass the flags `-Dhttp.proxyHost=localhost -Dhttp.proxyPort=3128` directly in gradle command.
+Or save in your `$HOME/.gradle/gradle.properties`
+```
+systemProp.http.proxyHost=localhost
+systemProp.http.proxyPort=3128
+```
+Using gradle to run all tests
+```
+./gradlew :tests:test
+```
+Using gradle to run some tests
+```
+./gradlew :tests:test --tests *ActionContainerTests*
+```
+Using IntelliJ:
+- Import project as gradle project.
+- Make sure working directory is root of the project/repo
+- Add the following Java VM properties in ScalaTests Run Configuration, easiest is to change the Defaults for all ScalaTests to use this VM properties
+```
+-Dhttp.proxyHost=localhost
+-Dhttp.proxyPort=3128
+```
