 The easiest way to test now is from a workspace with or without a build

+happening first. The easiest way to move it to a folder called workspace
+on the NMI submit node(say submit-2.batlab.org) is as follows:
+
+{code}
+cd top of your workspace
+git write-tree  # produce something like a68e0821c9808d2f584b593f3eeef65c3b4a432
+git archive a68e0821c9808d2f584b593f3eeef65c3b4a432 | ssh submit-2.batlab.org \
+cd workspace '&&' tar xf -
+{endcode}
+
+**All of the following variations happen within nmi_tools.**
+
+To build and then run all the tests go like this:
+
+{code}
+./condor_nmi_submit --build --git --workspace=../ --platforms=all \
+--notify-fail-only --desc="Tolerance for searchmulti"
+{endcode}
+
+To run the tests in your workspace and not do any builds, pick a build
+you want to test against and do the following:
 
 {code}
 ./condor_nmi_submit --test --platforms=all --buildid=135391 \
