-## Running tests
-At this time tests only run against Derby, in an in-memory database.
-Acceptance tests for individual database engines will be added over time.
-
-Assuming valid jruby is installed
-  - First time, issue `jruby -S bundle install` to install dependencies
-  - Next, download Derby jar from https://db.apache.org/derby/
-  - Run the tests `JDBC_DERBY_JAR=path/to/derby.jar jruby -S rspec`
-  - Optionally add the `JDBC_DEBUG=1` env variable to add logging to stdout

A parameter may either be a property of the event (i.e. "@timestamp", or "host") or a formatted string (i.e. "%{host} - %{message}" or "%{message}").

Failure to do so will result in possible SQL injections. Please be aware that there is also a potential performance penalty as each event must be evaluated and inserted into SQL one at a time, where as when this is false multiple events are inserted at once.

 ## Example configurations
 Example logstash configurations, can now be found in the examples directory. Where possible we try to link every configuration with a tested jar.
 
 If you have a working sample configuration, for a DB thats not listed, pull requests are welcome.
+
+## Development and Running tests
+For development tests are recommended to run inside a virtual machine (Vagrantfile is included in the repo), as it requires
+access to various database engines and could completely destroy any data in a live system.
+
+If you have vagrant available (this is temporary whilst I'm hacking on v5 support. I'll make this more streamlined later):
+  - `vagrant up`
+  - `vagrant ssh`
+  - `cd /vagrant`
+  - `gem install bundler`
+  - `cd /vagrant && bundle install && bundle exec rake vendor && bundle exec rake install_jars`
+  - `./scripts/travis-before_script.sh && source ./scripts/travis-variables.sh`
+  - `bundle exec rspec`
+
+## Releasing
+  - Update Changelog
+  - Bump version in gemspec
+  - Commit
+  - Create tag `git tag v<version-number-in-gemspec>`
+  - `bundle exec rake install_jars`
+  - `bundle exec rake pre_release_checks`
+  - `gem build logstash-output-jdbc.gemspec`
+  - `gem push`
