+# Running Tests
+
+## Manual Tests
+
+Some tests in this repository are marked with the `[Trait("Execution", "Manual")]` attribute. These tests require external dependencies or network connectivity and are not run by default in CI/CD pipelines.
+
+### Microsoft Learn MCP Server Tests
+
+The `MicrosoftLearnMcpServerTests` class contains integration tests that connect to the Microsoft Learn MCP server at `https://learn.microsoft.com/api/mcp` using Streamable HTTP transport.
+
+These tests:
+- Require network connectivity to Microsoft Learn services
+- Test real-world integration with a production MCP server
+- Validate the Streamable HTTP transport implementation
+
+#### Running the Microsoft Learn tests
+
+To run these tests, use the following command:
+
+```bash
+dotnet test --filter "(FullyQualifiedName~MicrosoftLearnMcpServerTests)"
+```
+
+Or to run all manual tests:
+
+```bash
+dotnet test --filter "(Execution=Manual)"
+```
+
+To exclude manual tests from a test run:
+
+```bash
+dotnet test --filter "(Execution!=Manual)"
+```
+
+### Requirements
+
+- .NET 10.0 SDK (as specified in `global.json`)
+- Internet connectivity
+- Access to https://learn.microsoft.com/api/mcp (ensure no firewall restrictions)
