Documentation:

An user guide is available in publican/DocBook sources under docs/User_Guide/libvirt-test-API_Guide it describes the software goals, explain how to write new test software and the configuration files for it, and then how to run the tests. The last section explain how to hook it into Autotest.

A pregenerated PDF version is available at ftp://libvirt.org/libvirt/libvirt-test-API/Libvirt-test-API.pdf or http://libvirt.org/sources/libvirt-test-API/Libvirt-test-API.pdf

To regenerate the documentation, you must have publican installed, then cd to docs/User_Guide/libvirt-test-API_Guide, double check the publican.cfg config file and then run make, the resulting files will be generated in a tmp subdirectory.
