+## Features
+
+    Launch Visual Studio Code as an Electron application.
+    Install extensions from VSIX files.
+    Basic test structure using Playwright's Page Object Model.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+Before you begin, ensure you have the following:
+
+    Node.js (version 14 or later) installed.
+    Playwright installed. You can install it using npm.
+    Visual Studio Code installed on your system.
+
+## Installation

+1. **Clone the Repository**
+
+`git clone https://github.com/konveyor/kai-ci`
+`cd kai-ci`
+
+2. **Install Dependencies**
+
+Install the required packages using npm:
+
+`npm install`
+
+
+## Usage
+
+    Create .env file and copy the content of .env.example into it and provide appropriate values:
+
+    VSCODE_EXECUTABLE_PATH='/usr/share/code/code'
+    VSIX_FILE_PATH='/home/sshveta/Downloads/kai-vscode-plugin-0.0.3.vsix'
+
+## Running Tests
+
+To run the automated tests, use the following command:
+
+`npx playwright test`
+
+This command will execute all tests in your repository. To run a specific test file:
+
+`npx playwright test vscode.test.ts`
+
