+# Building
+Use `mvn verify` or `mvn clean package` , etc. from repo root folder, and pass in a value for `revision` to override the current default version in POMs:
+`mvn -Drevision="1.5.4-SNAPSHOT" clean package -DskipTests`
+
+# Testing
+Running tests simply requires a Docker daemon running, where the build will automatically pull and run testcontainers for the database tests.
