+## Complete test on local env
+
+With a Kind cluster, External DNS can be tested easily with coredns provider.
+
+1. Prepare the cluster
+
+```shell
+kubectl create ns dns
+helm repo add bitnami https://charts.bitnami.com/bitnami
+helm -n dns install etcd bitnami/etcd --set auth.rbac.create=false
+```
+
+2. Create file `coredns-values.yaml`
+
+```yaml
+isClusterService: false
+serviceType: ClusterIP
+servers:
+  - zones:
+      - zone: example.test.
+    port: 53
+    plugins:
+      - name: errors
+      - name: log
+      - name: etcd
+        parameters: example.test
+        configBlock: |
+          stubzones
+          path /skydns
+          endpoint http://etcd.dns.svc.cluster.local:2379
+      - name: forward
+        parameters: . /etc/resolv.conf
+      - name: cache
+        parameters: 30
+      - name: health
+      - name: ready
+```
+
+3. Create coredns instance
+
+```console
+helm -n dns install coredns-ext coredns/coredns -f coredns-values.yaml
+```
+
+4. Create & deploy `extdns.yaml`:
+
+```yaml
+apiVersion: v1
+kind: ServiceAccount
+metadata:
+  name: external-dns
+  namespace: dns
+---
+apiVersion: rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1
+kind: ClusterRole
+metadata:
+  name: external-dns
+rules:
+- apiGroups: [""]
+  resources: ["services","endpoints","pods","nodes"]
+  verbs: ["get","watch","list"]
+- apiGroups: ["networking.k8s.io","discovery.k8s.io","extensions"]
+  resources: ["ingresses","endpointslices"]
+  verbs: ["get","watch","list"]
+---
+apiVersion: rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1
+kind: ClusterRoleBinding
+metadata:
+  name: external-dns-viewer
+roleRef:
+  apiGroup: rbac.authorization.k8s.io
+  kind: ClusterRole
+  name: external-dns
+subjects:
+- kind: ServiceAccount
+  name: external-dns
+  namespace: dns
+---
+apiVersion: apps/v1
+kind: Deployment
+metadata:
+  name: external-dns
+  namespace: dns
+spec:
+  strategy:
+    type: Recreate
+  selector:
+    matchLabels:
+      app: external-dns
+  template:
+    metadata:
+      labels:
+        app: external-dns
+    spec:
+      serviceAccountName: external-dns
+      containers:
+      - name: external-dns
+        image: extdns:dev
+        imagePullPolicy: Never
+        args:
+          - --provider=coredns
+          - --source=ingress
+          - --source=service
+          - --domain-filter=example.test
+          - --log-level=debug
+        env:
+        - name: ETCD_URLS
+          value: http://etcd.dns.svc.cluster.local:2379
+```
+
+5. Create and deploy a test service (`hello.yaml`)
+
+```yaml
+apiVersion: v1
+kind: Service
+metadata:
+  name: hello
+  annotations:
+    external-dns.alpha.kubernetes.io/hostname: hello.example.test
+spec:
+  type: NodePort
+  selector:
+    app: hello
+  ports:
+  - port: 80
+    targetPort: 8080
+---
+apiVersion: apps/v1
+kind: Deployment
+metadata:
+  name: hello
+spec:
+  selector:
+    matchLabels:
+      app: hello
+  template:
+    metadata:
+      labels:
+        app: hello
+    spec:
+      containers:
+        - name: app
+          image: nginx:stable
+          ports:
+          - containerPort: 8080
+```
