+[Googletest](https://github.com/google/googletest) and
+[googlemock](https://github.com/google/googletest/tree/master/googlemock)
+frameworks are used for unit testing of openmonero. There is no need
+to install them, as they are provided with openmonero.
+
+### MySQL setup
+
+Testing openmonero's operations on MySQL database are performed using
+actuall mysql database. For this purpose a testing database with
+some pre-populated data is used: `openmonero_test`. Thus before
+tests are run, make sure that `openmonero_test` database is initilized
+using `openmonero/sql/openmonero_test.sql` file, and `database_test` contains
+information on conneting to the test database in
+`openmonero/config/config.json`.
+
+### Compile and run openmonero  tests
+
+```bash
+# go into build folder of openmonero
+cd openmonero/build
+
+# indicate that test should be build
+cmake .. -DBUILD_TEST=ON
+
+# compile openmonero with tests
+make
+
+# run all tests
+make test
+
+# the above command will produce summary of test results (shown below).
+# for verbouse output, the following command can use
+# make test ARGS=-V
+
+# individual tests executables can also be run. they are located in
+# openmonero/build/tests
+
+```
+
+Example test output is:
+
+```bash
+mwo@arch:build$ make test
