+      <p><em>Common Test</em> is a portable application for automated 
+      testing. It is suitable for black-box testing of target
+      systems of any type (i.e. not necessarily implemented in Erlang),
+      as well as for white-box testing of Erlang/OTP programs.
+      Black-box testing is performed via standard O&amp;M 
+      interfaces (such as SNMP, HTTP, Corba, Telnet, etc) and,
+      if required, via user specific interfaces (often called test 
+      ports). White-box testing of Erlang/OTP programs is easily
+      accomplished by calling the target API functions directly
+      from the test case functions. Common Test also integrates 
+      usage of the OTP cover tool for code coverage analysis of 
+      Erlang/OTP programs.</p>
+      
+      <p>Common Test executes test suite programs automatically,
+      without operator interaction. Test progress and results is
+      printed to logs on HTML format, easily browsed with a standard
+      web browser. Common Test also sends notifications about progress
+      and results via an OTP event manager to event handlers plugged
+      in to the system. This way users can integrate their own
+      programs for e.g. logging, database storing or supervision with
+      Common Test.</p>
+
+      <p>Common Test provides libraries that contain useful support 
+      functions to fill various testing needs and requirements. 
+      There is for example support for flexible test declarations 
+      by means of so called test specifications. There is also support 
+      for central configuration and control of multiple 
+      independent test sessions (towards different target systems)
+      running in parallel.</p>
+
+      <p>Common Test is implemented as a framework based on the OTP Test 
+      Server application.</p>
