+# telemetrygodev
+
+## Local Development
+
+For local development, simply build and run. It serves on localhost:8080.
+
+    go run .
+
+## Testing
+
+The telemetry.go.dev web site has a suite of regression tests that can be run with:
+
+    go test golang.org/x/telemetry/...
+
+## Deploying
+
+Each time a CL is reviewed and submitted, the site is automatically deployed to Cloud Run.
+If it passes its serving-readiness checks, it will be automatically promoted to handle traffic.
+
+If the automatic deployment is not working, or to check on the status of a pending deployment,
+see the “telemetrygodev” trigger in the
+[Cloud Build history](https://pantheon.corp.google.com/cloud-build/builds?project=go-telemetry).
+
+### Test Instance
+
+To deploy a test instance of this service, push to a branch and manually trigger the deploy job from
+the [Cloud Build console](https://pantheon.corp.google.com/cloud-build/triggers?project=go-telemetry)
+with the desired values for branch and service name.
