+==========
+- PM-QA is one of the tools in the external opensource modules in the external
+ path of android. For building on android, the makefile Android.mk is used to
+ build the testsuite with a makefile for each subtest.
+- Incase you are extending a subtest, say a new script which will test a
+ feature. Add the test number in the Android.mk, in addition to this if its
+ using a source file (say .c), add the source file in the Android.mk so that
+ it gets built.
+- LAVA scripts are used to trigger the pm-qa tests.
+- Similarly for non-android adding a script and txt (test description) pair is
+ needed to extent the suite.
