+**Test Plan**
+
+When you make changes ensure at the very minimum you should test the following:
+
+```
+auter --disable         # deletes /var/lib/auter/enabled, prints "auter disabled"
+auter --status          # prints "auter is currently disabled"
+auter --enable          # touches /var/lib/auter/enabled, prints "auter enabled"
+auter --status          # prints "auter is currently enabled and not running"
+auter --help            # shows help message
+auter --version         # prints "auter VERSIONNUMBER"
+```
+
+If you don't have any updates available do this:
+
+```
+yum install zsh
+yum downgrade zsh
+```
+
+Prepare custom scripts:
+
+```
+echo 'logger custom pre reboot script ran' > /var/lib/auter/pre_reboot_script
+echo 'logger custom post reboot script ran' > /var/lib/auter/post_reboot_script
+chmod +x /var/lib/auter/*script
+```
+
+Now there will be at least one update:
+
+```
+Edit /etc/sysconfig/auter to set MAXDELAY=1
+
+auter --prep
+    prints "Running with: ./auter --prep Updates downloaded", /var/lib/auter/last-prep-auter
+    /var/lib/auter/last-prep-auter contains update info
+
+auter --apply
+    prints "Running with: /usr/bin/auter --apply; Applying updates; Updates complete, you may need to reboot for some updates to take effect
+    Run 'yum history info' and verify that update was applied
+    /var/lib/auter/last-update-auter contains update info (same as yum history)
+
+auter --reboot
+    prints "Running with: ./auter --reboot; Rebooting server" followed by shutdown message
+    tail /var/log/message should include text "root: custom pre reboot script ran"
+    cat /etc/cron.d/auter-postreboot-auter should show "@reboot root /usr/bin/auter --postreboot --config auter"
+    After the reboot, tail /var/log/message should include text "root: custom post reboot script ran"
+```
+
+**Documentation**
+
+When making any changes to code, make sure documentation (--help, man page) has been updated to reflect any changes

+          notices within Derivative Works that You distribute, alongside

+          that such additional attribution notices cannot be construed
+          as modifying the License.
+
+      You may add Your own copyright statement to Your modifications and
+      may provide additional or different license terms and conditions
+      for use, reproduction, or distribution of Your modifications, or
+      for any such Derivative Works as a whole, provided Your use,
+      reproduction, and distribution of the Work otherwise complies with
+      the conditions stated in this License.
+
+   5. Submission of Contributions. Unless You explicitly state otherwise,
+      any Contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the Work
+      by You to the Licensor shall be under the terms and conditions of
+      this License, without any additional terms or conditions.
+      Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein shall supersede or modify
+      the terms of any separate license agreement you may have executed
+      with Licensor regarding such Contributions.
+
+   6. Trademarks. This License does not grant permission to use the trade
+      names, trademarks, service marks, or product names of the Licensor,
+      except as required for reasonable and customary use in describing the
+      origin of the Work and reproducing the content of the NOTICE file.

+   7. Disclaimer of Warranty. Unless required by applicable law or
+      agreed to in writing, Licensor provides the Work (and each
+      Contributor provides its Contributions) on an "AS IS" BASIS,
+      WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or
+      implied, including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions
+      of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A
+      PARTICULAR PURPOSE. You are solely responsible for determining the
+      appropriateness of using or redistributing the Work and assume any
+      risks associated with Your exercise of permissions under this License.
+
+   8. Limitation of Liability. In no event and under no legal theory,
+      whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise,
+      unless required by applicable law (such as deliberate and grossly
+      negligent acts) or agreed to in writing, shall any Contributor be
+      liable to You for damages, including any direct, indirect, special,
+      incidental, or consequential damages of any character arising as a
+      result of this License or out of the use or inability to use the
+      Work (including but not limited to damages for loss of goodwill,
+      work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all
+      other commercial damages or losses), even if such Contributor
+      has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
+
+   9. Accepting Warranty or Additional Liability. While redistributing
+      the Work or Derivative Works thereof, You may choose to offer,
+      and charge a fee for, acceptance of support, warranty, indemnity,
+      or other liability obligations and/or rights consistent with this
+      License. However, in accepting such obligations, You may act only
+      on Your own behalf and on Your sole responsibility, not on behalf
+      of any other Contributor, and only if You agree to indemnify,
+      defend, and hold each Contributor harmless for any liability
+      incurred by, or claims asserted against, such Contributor by reason
+      of your accepting any such warranty or additional liability.

+# auter
+
+**Enable/Disable**
+
+Adds or removes a lockfile that auter will check the presence of to see whether to do anything:
+```
+auter --enable
+auter --disable
+```
+
+**Configure**
+
+Edit /etc/auter/auter.conf. See the comments in that file for help. yum/dnf configuration should be used to configure anything affecting yum/dnf, for example packages to exclude.
+
+**Set Regular Schedule**
+
+Edit /etc/cron.d/auter. The following can have different times:
+
+```
+prep - Pre-download packages from yum (if downloadonly option is supported)
+apply - Apply updates and reboot
+```
+
+Typically, you may want *apply* to run on one day for your UAT, and another later day for your Production servers.
+
+**Set Irregular Schedule**
+
+If the times you want this to run varies such that its not definable in a crontab, disable the cron jobs and instead create at jobs (as root):
+
+```
+echo '/usr/bin/auter --apply' | at 1am Feb 17
+echo '/usr/bin/auter --apply' | at 4am Mar 20
+echo '/usr/bin/auter --apply' | at 2am Apr 19
+```
+
+**Run at boot time**
+
+To apply updates on every boot, set a cron job in /etc/cron.d/auter:
+
+```
+@reboot    root /usr/bin/auter --apply
+```
+
+**Manual Run**
+
+You'll usually want everything to run via cron, but you can also run auter manually should you wish to, for example for debugging:
+
+```
+auter --prep
+auter --apply
+```
