+## Spring Data Tests Context Framework for Spring Data GemFire/Geode
+
+This project is a new _Spring Data_ module building on _Spring's_
+`TestContext` Framework for writing _Unit_ and _Integration_ Tests
+for both _Spring Data_ for [Pivotal GemFire](https://pivotal.io/pivotal-gemfire)
+as well as _Spring Data_ for [Apache Geode](http://geode.apache.org/).
+
+This project was born from [_Spring Data GemFire's_](http://projects.spring.io/spring-data-gemfire/)
+([GitHub project](https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-data-gemfire))
+[test framework](https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-data-gemfire/tree/2.0.2.RELEASE/src/test/java/org/springframework/data/gemfire/test).
+This _test framework_ is used in SDG's test suite to test the proper
+function when using either Pivotal GemFire or Apache Geode
+in a _Spring_ context.
+
+For many years, users have asked for a way to test their Pivotal GemFire
+or Apache Geode-based, _Spring_ applications, whether writing _Unit_
+or _Integrations_ tests.  This project is the answer.
+
+This **new** project is still under development.
