+### Prepare development environment
+
+1.  sudo apt install
+    build-essential cmake net-tools python-pip python-setuptools python3-pip
+    python3-setuptools valgrind psmisc curl
+
+2.  git clone <https://github.com/taosdata/TDengine>; cd TDengine
+
+3.  mkdir debug; cd debug; cmake ..; make ; sudo make install
+
+4.  pip install src/connector/python/linux/python2 ; pip3 install
+    src/connector/python/linux/python3
+
+### How to run Python test suite
+
+1.  cd \<TDengine\>/tests/pytest
+
+2.  ./smoketest.sh \# for smoke test
+
+3.  ./smoketest.sh -g \# for memory leak detection test with valgrind
+
+4.  ./fulltest.sh \# for full test
+
+>   Note1: TDengine daemon's configuration and data files are stored in
+>   \<TDengine\>/sim directory. As a historical design, it's same place with
+>   TSIM script. So after the TSIM script ran with sudo privilege, the directory
+>   has been used by TSIM then the python script cannot write it by a normal
+>   user. You need to remove the directory completely first before running the
+>   Python test case. We should consider using two different locations to store
+>   for TSIM and Python script.
+
+>   Note2: if you need to debug crash problem with a core dump, you need
+>   manually edit smoketest.sh or fulltest.sh to add "ulimit -c unlimited"
+>   before the script line. Then you can look for the core file in
+>   \<TDengine\>/tests/pytest after the program crash.
