+The Arista Library for Robot Framework
+======================================
+
+Introduction
+------------
+
+The enclosed project aims to simplify testing when using Robot Framework by adding a number of
+EOS-centric keywords. The Library works by using the PyEAPI module to connect to and read information 
+from EOS nodes. 
+
+Prerequisites
+-------------
+
+* `Robot Framework <http://robotframework.org/>`
+* `PyEAPI <https://github.com/arista-eosplus/pyeapi>`
+
+Documentation
+-------------
+
+See the `AristaLibrary <http://arista-eosplus.github.io/robotframework-aristalibrary/AristaLibrary.html>` keyword documentation.
+
+Example
+-------
+
+::
+
+    # -*- coding: robot -*-
+    # :setf robot
+    # :set noexpandtab
+    *** Settings ***
+    Documentation   This is a sample Robot Framework suite which takes advantage of
+    ... the AristaLibrary for communicating with and controlling Arista switches.
+    ... Run with:
+    ... pybot --pythonpath=AristaLibrary demo/sample-test-refactored.txt
+
+    Library AristaLibrary
+    Library Collections
+    Suite Setup Connect To Switches
+    Suite Teardown  Clear All Connections
+
+    *** Variables ***
+    ${TRANSPORT}    http
+    ${SW1_HOST} localhost
+    ${SW1_PORT} 2080

+    ${SW2_PORT} 2081
+    ${USERNAME} apiuser
+    ${PASSWORD} donttell
+
+    *** Test Cases ***
+    Ping Test
+        [Documentation] Configure Et1 on both nodes and ping between them
+        [tags]  Configure
+        Configure IP Int    1   ethernet1   10.1.1.0/31
+        Configure IP Int    2   ethernet1   10.1.1.1/31

+        Log ${result}
+        ${match}    ${group1}=  Should Match Regexp ${result['messages'][0]}    (\\d+)% packet loss
+        Should Be Equal As Integers ${group1}   0   msg="Packets lost percent not zero!!!"
+
+    *** Keywords ***
+    Connect To Switches
+        [Documentation] Establish connection to a switch which gets used by test cases.
+        Connect To  host=${SW1_HOST}    transport=${TRANSPORT}  username=${USERNAME}

+        ... password=${PASSWORD}    port=${SW2_PORT}
+        Configure   hostname veos1
+
+    Configure IP Int
+        [Arguments] ${switch}   ${interface}    ${ip}
+        Change To Switch    ${switch}
