+# Testing GitHub app auth
+
+## Step 1: Create and install a dummy GitHub app for testing with
+
+Go to https://github.com/settings/apps/new
+
+1. Enter a name for the app (needs to be unique across GitHub).
+2. Set the required `homepage URL` field (can be any valid URL).
+3. Under `Webhook`, uncheck the `Active` checkbox.
+4. Click on `Repository permissions` under `Permissions`, and set `Contents` to `Read-only`
+5. Click on `Create GitHub App` at the bottom of the page.
+6. You should be navigated to a new page with a `Registration successful. You must generate a private key in order to install your GitHub App.` message. Click on the `generate a private key` link, and then the `Generate a private key` button, and save it somewhere; it will be used to test the app authentication.
+7. Click on the `Install App` tab on the left, and then click on `Install` on the right.
+8. Select `Only select repositories`, and pick any private repository that contains a "LICENSE" file (may need to be created beforehand).
+
+## Step 2: Export the necessary environment variables
+
+The following environment variables are *required* to run the git-sync github app auth tests:
+- `GITHUB_APP_PRIVATE_KEY`
+- `GITHUB_APP_APPLICATION_ID`
+- `GITHUB_APP_CLIENT_ID`
+- `GITHUB_APP_INSTALLATION_ID`
+- `GITHUB_APP_AUTH_TEST_REPO`
+
+### GITHUB_APP_PRIVATE_KEY
+Should have been saved when creating the app
+
+### GITHUB_APP_APPLICATION_ID
+The value after "App ID" in the app's settings page
+
+### GITHUB_APP_CLIENT_ID
+The value after "Client ID" in the app's settings page
+
+### GITHUB_APP_INSTALLATION_ID
+Found in the URL of the app's installation page if you installed it to a repository: https://github.com/settings/installations/<installation_id>
+
+### GITHUB_APP_AUTH_TEST_REPO
+Should be set to the repository that the github app is installed to.
