+# MXNet Scala Package Test
+
+This is an project created to run the test suite on a fully packaged mxnet jar.
+
+## Setup
+
+### Install Package
+
+To run the test suite, first install the package.  This can be done either by installing directly from a jar with `mvn install:install-file -Dfile=<path-to-file>` or by running `make scalainstall` in the main mxnet folder.  Note that if you use `mvn install:install-file`, you will be unable to run the example tests unless you also install the mxnetexamples jar. You can run all tests except for those examples with `make scalaintegrationtestwithoutexamples`.
+
+### Build
+
+Build the mxnet tests by running `make scalatestcompile` from the main mxnet directory.  This is needed for test discovery.
+
+## Run
+
+To run, ensure the versions are correct in the `Makefile`.  Then, just run `make scalaintegrationtest` to execute the test suite
+
+## Clean
+
+You can clean temporary files and target artifacts by running `make scalaclean`.
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Missing Examples
+
+If you fail with the following error
+```
+[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.scalatest:scalatest-maven-plugin:1.0:test (test) on project mxnet-scala-packagetest-examples_2.11: There are test failures -> [Help 1]
+[ERROR]
+[ERROR] To see the full stack trace of the errors, re-run Maven with the -e switch.
+[ERROR] Re-run Maven using the -X switch to enable full debug logging.
+[ERROR]
+[ERROR] For more information about the errors and possible solutions, please read the following articles:
+[ERROR] [Help 1] http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/MAVEN/MojoFailureException
+[ERROR]
+[ERROR] After correcting the problems, you can resume the build with the command
+[ERROR]   mvn <goals> -rf :mxnet-scala-packagetest-examples_2.11
+Makefile:57: recipe for target 'scalaintegrationtest' failed
+make: *** [scalaintegrationtest] Error 1
+```
+
+and stacktrace begins with the following,
+
+```
+*** RUN ABORTED ***
+  java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/mxnetexamples/Util$
+```
+
+you are missing the mxnetexamples package.  See the "Install Package" section for details.
