 In order for the tests to work correctly ensure that SAP HA Interface for SAP ABAP application server instances managed by RHEL HA Add-On is configured. This link can be followed to configure the same: https://access.redhat.com/solutions/3606101
 
-## Collection Dependancies
-
-This collection is dependant on
+### Setup and Configuration
+
+1. **Install Collection Dependencies:**
+   ```bash
+   ansible-galaxy collection install -r requirements.yml
+   ```
+
+2. **Configure Inventory:**
+   - Edit `tests/inventory/x86_64.yml` or `tests/inventory/ppc64le.yml` to include your cluster nodes
+   - Ensure `ansible_user` is set correctly for each host (default is `root`)
+
+3. **Ansible Configuration:**
+   - The project includes an `ansible.cfg` file in the root directory with pre-configured paths
+   - All paths are relative, so no user-specific customization is needed
+   - The configuration automatically finds:
+     - Collections in the current directory and `./collections` subdirectory
+     - Roles in the collection structure
+     - System-wide collections and roles
+
+4. **Running Tests:**
+   ```bash
+   # Run a specific test
+   ansible-playbook -i tests/inventory/x86_64.yml ansible_collections/sap/cluster_qa/playbooks/test09.yml
+
+   # Run all tests (test01 through test09, skipping test07)
+   ansible-playbook -i tests/inventory/x86_64.yml ansible_collections/sap/cluster_qa/playbooks/run_all_tests.yml
+   ```

+## Collection Dependencies
