+Getting started with QTIP
+*************************
+
+Overview
+========
+
+Create a new project to hold the neccessary configurations and test results
+::
+
+    qtip create <project_name>
+
+The user would be prompted for OPNFV installer, its hostname etc
+::
+
+    **Pod Name [unknown]: zte-pod1**
+    User's choice to name OPNFV Pod
+
+    **OPNFV Installer [manual]: fuel**
+    QTIP currently supports fuel and apex only
+
+    **Installer Hostname [dummy-host]: master**
+    The hostname for the fuel or apex installer node. The same hostname can be added to **~/.ssh/config** file of current user,
+    if there are problems resolving the hostname via interactive input.
+
+    **OPNFV Scenario [unknown]: os-nosdn-nofeature-ha**
+    Depends on the OPNFV scenario deployed
+
+With the framework generated, user should now proceed on to setting up testing environment. In this step, information related to OPNFV cluster would
+be generated, such as getting the IP addresses of the nodes in System Under Test (SUT).
+::
+
+    cd <project_name>
+    $ qtip setup
+
+QTIP uses `ssh-agent` for authentication. It is critical that it started and stopped in the correct way.
+
+
+ssh-agent
+=========
+
+ssh-agent is used to hold the private keys for RSA, DCA authentication. In order to start the process
+::
+
+    $ eval $(ssh-agent)
+
+This would start the agent in background. One must now be able to execute QTIP
+::
+
+    $ qtip run
+
+However, if QTIP is not working because of `ssh-agent`, one should kill the process as follows
+::
+
+    $ eval $(ssh-agent -k)
+
+Then start the agent again as described above.
