 Create a new Oauth client
 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+In order to interact with Agave, you'll need to first create an Oauth client so
+that later on you can create access tokens to do work.
+
+To create a client you can do the following:
 
 .. code-block:: pycon
 
-   >>> ag = Agave(api_server='https://api.tacc.cloud',
-   ...            username='mwvaughn',
-   ...            password='PaZ$w0r6!')
-   >>> ag.clients.create(body={'clientName': 'my_client'})
-   {u'consumerKey': u'kV4XLPhVBAv9RTf7a2QyBHhQAXca', u'_links': {u'subscriber':

-    u'consumerSecret': u'5EbjEOcyzzIsAAE3vBS7nspVqHQa', u'name': u'my_client'}
-
-You use the **consumerKey** and **consumerSecret** to generate Oauth *tokens*,

+    API password: 
+    >>> ag.api_key
+    'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
+    >>> ag.api_secret
+    'XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX'

Re-implement client creation to properly manage credentials
Currently to create an agave oauth client one has to specify username and password at the moment an agave object is instantiated, see #41 .
Will re-implement the client creation to only ask for credentials when the library makes the request to create a client. This way credentials will not be stored.

+# Testing
+
+## Writing new tests
+
+Most code changes will fall into one of the following categories.
+
+### Writing tests for new features
+
+New code should be covered by unit tests. If the code is difficult to test with
+a unit tests then that is a good sign that it should be refactored to make it
+easier to reuse and maintain. Consider accepting unexported interfaces instead
+of structs so that fakes can be provided for dependencies.
+
+
+### Writing tests for bug fixes
+
+Bugs fixes should include a unit test case which exercises the bug.
+
+
+### Test structure
+
+Test serve a dual purpose: test functionality and document the expected
+response from the agave API.
+
+The test suite uses valid sample responses, see 
+[sample responses](tests/sample_responses) to mock the agave API by spawning a
+mock server in the local host to handle any requests from the cli.
+
+
+## Running tests
+
+To run the unit test suite run the development container:
+```
+$ make shell
+```
+
+### Testing Python 3
+Before you start testing, you'll need to install all the package dependencies.
+```
+$ make install
+```
+
+Inside the container run:
+```
+$ make tests
+```
+
+
+### Testing Python 2
+Install all dependencies
+```
+$ make install-p2
+```
+
+Run tests
+```
+$ make tests-py2
+```
