+===============
+Getting Started
+===============
+
+Installing dependencies
+=======================
+KUnit has the same dependencies as the Linux kernel. As long as you can build
+the kernel, you can run KUnit.
+
+KUnit Wrapper
+=============
+Included with KUnit is a simple Python wrapper that helps format the output to
+easily use and read KUnit output. It handles building and running the kernel, as
+well as formatting the output.
+
+The wrapper can be run with:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run
+
+Creating a kunitconfig
+======================
+The Python script is a thin wrapper around Kbuild as such, it needs to be
around Kbuild. As such,
Thanks for pointing this out.
+configured with a ``kunitconfig`` file. This file essentially contains the
+regular Kernel config, with the specific test targets as well.
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ git clone -b master https://kunit.googlesource.com/kunitconfig $PATH_TO_KUNITCONFIG_REPO
+ cd $PATH_TO_LINUX_REPO
+ ln -s $PATH_TO_KUNIT_CONFIG_REPO/kunitconfig kunitconfig
+
+You may want to add kunitconfig to your local gitignore.
+
+Verifying KUnit Works
+---------------------
+
+To make sure that everything is set up correctly, simply invoke the Python
+wrapper from your kernel repo:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py
+
+.. note::
+ You may want to run ``make mrproper`` first.
I normally use O=builddir when building kernels.
Does this support using O=builddir ?
Yep, it supports specifying a separate build directory.
+
+If everything worked correctly, you should see the following:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ Generating .config ...
+ Building KUnit Kernel ...
+ Starting KUnit Kernel ...
+
+followed by a list of tests that are run. All of them should be passing.
+
+.. note::
+ Because it is building a lot of sources for the first time, the ``Building
+ kunit kernel`` step may take a while.
+
+Writing your first test

TBD...
What did you mean by this comment?
I plan to review usage.rst soon... (To Be Done :)
I would like to apply the series very soon so it gets some soak time
after this move in linux-next and it can still make the rc1.
Since there changes can be addressed after rc1, I would like to not
require Brendan to do another version before I apply.
Hope you are okay with that Randy!
thanks,
