+# Connection String Tests
+
+The YAML and JSON files in this directory tree are platform-independent tests that drivers can use to prove their
+conformance to the Connection String Spec.
+
+As the spec is primarily concerned with parsing the parts of a URI, these tests do not focus on host and option
+validation. Where necessary, the tests use options known to be (un)supported by drivers to assert behavior such as
+issuing a warning on repeated option keys. As such these YAML tests are in no way a replacement for more thorough
+testing. However, they can provide an initial verification of your implementation.
+
+## Version
+
+Files in the "specifications" repository have no version scheme. They are not tied to a MongoDB server version.
+
+## Format
+
+Each YAML file contains an object with a single `tests` key. This key is an array of test case objects, each of which
+have the following keys:
+
+- `description`: A string describing the test.
+- `uri`: A string containing the URI to be parsed.
+- `valid:` A boolean indicating if the URI should be considered valid.
+- `warning:` A boolean indicating whether URI parsing should emit a warning (independent of whether or not the URI is
+  valid).
+- `hosts`: An array of host objects, each of which have the following keys:
+  - `type`: A string denoting the type of host. Possible values are "ipv4", "ip_literal", "hostname", and "unix".
+    Asserting the type is *optional*.
+  - `host`: A string containing the parsed host.
+  - `port`: An integer containing the parsed port number.
+- `auth`: An object containing the following keys:
+  - `username`: A string containing the parsed username. For auth mechanisms that do not utilize a password, this may be
+    the entire `userinfo` token (as discussed in [RFC 2396](https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2396.txt)).
+  - `password`: A string containing the parsed password.
+  - `db`: A string containing the parsed authentication database. For legacy implementations that support namespaces
+    (databases and collections) this may be the full namespace eg: `<db>.<coll>`
+- `options`: An object containing key/value pairs for each parsed query string option.
+
+If a test case includes a null value for one of these keys (e.g. `auth: ~`, `port: ~`), no assertion is necessary. This
+both simplifies parsing of the test files (keys should always exist) and allows flexibility for drivers that might
+substitute default values *during* parsing (e.g. omitted `port` could be parsed as 27017).
+
+The `valid` and `warning` fields are boolean in order to keep the tests flexible. We are not concerned with asserting
+the format of specific error or warnings messages strings.
+
+### Use as unit tests
+
+Testing whether a URI is valid or not should simply be a matter of checking whether URI parsing (or MongoClient
+construction) raises an error or exception. Testing for emitted warnings may require more legwork (e.g. configuring a
+log handler and watching for output).
+
+Not all drivers may be able to directly assert the hosts, auth credentials, and options. Doing so may require exposing
+the driver's URI parsing component.
+
+The file `valid-db-with-dotted-name.yml` is a special case for testing drivers that allow dotted namespaces, instead of
+only database names, in the Auth Database portion of the URI.
