+# Testing Guide for Translations CLI
+
+Complete guide for testing the translations CLI before release.
+
+## Quick Test Commands
+
+```bash
+# Quick smoke test (fastest)
+yarn test:quick
+
+# Full integration test
+yarn test:integration
+
+# Unit tests (vitest)
+yarn test
+
+# Manual testing checklist
+# See: test/manual-test-checklist.md
+```
+
+## Testing Strategy
+
+### 1. Automated Tests
+
+#### Quick Test (Recommended First)
+
+```bash
+yarn test:quick
+```
+
+- Builds the CLI
+- Tests help command
+- Tests generate command with sample files
+- Verifies output structure
+- Takes ~10 seconds
+
+#### Integration Test
+
+```bash
+yarn test:integration
+```
+
+- Creates full test fixture
+- Tests generate command
+- Verifies English-only filtering
+- Verifies non-English words are excluded
+- Takes ~30 seconds
+
+#### Unit Tests
+
+```bash
+yarn test
+```
+
+- Runs vitest test suite
+- Tests individual functions
+- Fast feedback during development
+
+### 2. Manual Testing
+
+Follow the comprehensive checklist:
+
+```bash
+# View checklist
+cat test/manual-test-checklist.md
+```
+
+Key areas to test:
+
+- ✅ All commands work
+- ✅ Help text is correct
+- ✅ Generate only includes English
+- ✅ Non-English words excluded
+- ✅ Error messages are helpful
+
+### 3. Real Repository Testing
+
+#### Test in community-plugins
+
+```bash
+cd /Users/yicai/redhat/community-plugins
+
+# Build and link CLI first
+cd /Users/yicai/redhat/rhdh-plugins/workspaces/translations/packages/cli
+yarn build
+yarn link  # or use: node bin/translations-cli
+
+# Test generate
+cd /Users/yicai/redhat/community-plugins
+translations-cli i18n generate --source-dir . --output-dir i18n
+
+# Verify:
+# 1. reference.json only contains English
+# 2. No Italian/German/French words
+# 3. All plugins included
+# 4. Language files excluded
+```
+
+#### Test in rhdh-plugins
+
+```bash
+cd /Users/yicai/redhat/rhdh-plugins/workspaces/translations
+translations-cli i18n generate --source-dir . --output-dir i18n
+```
+
+## Pre-Release Checklist
+
+### Build & Lint
+
+- [ ] `yarn build` succeeds
+- [ ] `yarn lint` passes (no errors)
+- [ ] No TypeScript errors
+
+### Automated Tests
+
+- [ ] `yarn test:quick` passes
+- [ ] `yarn test:integration` passes
+- [ ] `yarn test` passes (if unit tests exist)
+
+### Manual Tests
+
+- [ ] All commands work (`--help` for each)
+- [ ] Generate creates correct output
+- [ ] Only English in reference.json
+- [ ] Non-English words excluded
+- [ ] Error handling works
+
+### Real Repository Tests

+
+## Common Issues & Solutions
+
+### Build Fails
+
+```bash
+# Clean and rebuild
+yarn clean
+rm -rf dist node_modules
+yarn install

+```
+
+### Tests Fail
+
+```bash
+# Ensure scripts are executable
+chmod +x test/*.sh
+
+# Rebuild
+yarn build
+```
+
+### Command Not Found
+
+```bash
+# Use direct path
+node bin/translations-cli i18n --help
+
+# Or link globally
+yarn link
+```
+
+## Testing Workflow
+
+### Daily Development
+
+1. `yarn test:quick` - before committing
+2. `yarn lint` - ensure code quality
+
+### Before PR
+
+1. `yarn test:integration` - full test
+2. Manual testing of key features
+3. Test in at least one real repo
+
+### Before Release
+
+1. Complete pre-release checklist
+2. Test in 2+ real repositories
+3. Verify all documentation
+4. Check version numbers
+
