+Testing Instructions
+====================
+
+This folder contains several crafted tcpdump traces that can be used to manually check
+correctness of NDN Packet Dissector for Wireshark in several scenarios.
+
+To use the dissector, follow the instructions in
+[dissector's README.md](../../tools/dissect-wireshark/README.md).
+
+`-r <trace-file>` command-line flag can be used to directly open a specific trace file in
+WireShark.  For example:
+
+    wireshark -X lua_script:../../tools/dissect-wireshark/ndn.lua -r ipv4-udp-fragmented.pcap
+
+## Test Cases / Trace File Description
+
+### 1. IPv4 UDP
+
+Trace file: `ipv4-udp-fragmented.pcap`
+
+Trace summary: several IPv4 UDP packets, carrying NDN interests and data packets. One
+datagram is fragmented into several IPv4 packets.
+
+Expected result of the dissection:
+
+- NDN interests are dissected from packets 1, 2, 3, and 8.
+- NDN data packet is dissected from defragmented packets 4, 5, 6, and 7.
+
+### 2. IPv6 UDP
+
+Trace file: `ipv6-udp-fragmented.pcap`
+
+Trace summary: several IPv6 UDP packets, carrying NDN interests and data packets. One
+datagram is fragmented into several IPv6 packets.
+
+Expected result of the dissection:
+
+- NDN interests are dissected from packets 1, and 2.
+- NDN data packet is dissected from defragmented packets 3, 4, 5, and 6.
+
+### 3. IPv4 TCP
+
+#### 3.1. De-segmentation and dissection
+
+  Trace file: `ipv4-tcp-segmented.pcap`
+
+  Trace summary: several IPv4 TCP packets, carrying NDN interest and a data packets. The data
+  packet spans several TCP segments.
+
+  Expected result of the dissection:
+  - interest packet is properly dissected from packet 2.
+  - data packet is properly dissected after de-segmentation of payloads in packets 4, 5, 6, and 7.
+
+#### 3.2. Dissection of TCP segments containing multiple NDN packets
+
+  Trace file: `ipv4-tcp-multi-ndn-packets-in-segment.pcap`
+
+  Trace summary: Several IPv4 TCP packets, payload of one containing several NDN interests.
+
+  Expected result of the dissection:
+  - a single interest packet is dissected from packet 1.
+  - four interest packets are dissected from packet 3.
+
+### 4. IPv6 TCP
+
+Trace file: `ipv6-tcp-segmented.pcap`
+
+Trace summary: several IPv6 TCP packets, carrying an NDN data packet that spans several
+TCP segments.
+
+Expected result of the dissection:
+- data packet is properly dissected after de-segmentation of payloads in packets 2, 3, 4, and 5.
+
+### 5. IPv4 TCP/WebSocket
+
+Trace file: `ipv4-websocket-segmented.pcap`
+
+Trace summary: Partial capture of a live IPv4 WebSocket session with a single NDN interest
+retrieving large (~5k) NDN data packet.
+
+Expected result of the dissection:
+- interest packet is dissected after a partial reconstruction of WebSocket session at
+  packet 16.
+- data packet is properly dissected after a partial reconstruction of WebSocket
+  conversation at packet 22.
+
+### 6. IPv6 TCP/WebSocket
+
+Trace file: `ipv6-websocket-segmented.pcap`
+
+Trace summary: Partial capture of a live IPv6 WebSocket session with a single NDN interest
+retrieving large (~5k) NDN data packet.
+
+Expected result of the dissection:
+- interest packet is dissected after a partial reconstruction of WebSocket session at
+  packet 6.
+- data packet is properly dissected after a partial reconstruction of WebSocket
+  conversation at packet 12.
