 - Uninstall any llmware modules locally installed
 - Install the llmware module from this repo (simulating a user installing from pypi)
 - Completely remove $HOME/llmware_data
-- Reset Mongo and Milvus (drop all collections)
+- Reset Mongo and Milvus (drop all collections) -> not currently updated to drop Postgres and SQLITE DBs or other Vector DBs
 - Run ./models/test_all_generative_models.py which will pull down many GBs of model files to the test systems.

 ### Only running tests from a specific folder or file
 
+This is our recommended testing approach, unless a PR has significant cross-module changes, and even in such cases 
+it is usually more effective to run 2-3 individual tests and supplement with manual testing.  
+
+Note:  please note that we are in the process of updating our test automation coverage suite.  We would welcome 
+contributions from the community to continue to improve the automation and coverage scope of these tests.  
+
+In addition to the formal tests, we would recommend using recent examples as well as good proxies, especially in 
+targeted areas of the code base.
