 ### Controlling the test environment
 
+#### WordPress Version
+
+You can run the tests against a specific version of WordPress by setting the `WP_VERSION` environment variable.
+
+This variable understands any numeric version, as well as the special terms `latest` and `trunk`.
+
+Note: This only applies to the Behat functional tests. All other tests never load WordPress.
+
+Here's how to run your tests against the latest trunk version of WordPress:
+```bash
+WP_VERSION=trunk composer behat
+```
+
+#### WP-CLI Binary
+
+You can run the tests against a specific WP-CLI binary, instead of using the one that has been built in your project's `vendor/bin` folder.
+
+This can be useful to run your tests against a specific Phar version of WP_CLI.
+
+To do this, you can set the `WP_CLI_BIN_DIR` environment variable to point to a folder that contains an executable `wp` binary. Note: the binary has to be named `wp` to be properly recognized.
+
+As an example, here's how to run your tests against a specific Phar version you've downloaded.
+```bash
+# Prepare the binary you've downloaded into the ~/wp-cli folder first.
+mv ~/wp-cli/wp-cli-1.2.0.phar ~/wp-cli/wp
+chmod +x ~/wp-cli/wp
+
+WP_CLI_BIN_DIR=~/wp-cli composer behat
+```
+
+### Setting up the tests in Travis CI
+
+Basic rules for setting up the test framework with Travis CI:
+
+* `composer prepare-tests` needs to be called once per environment.
+* `linting and sniffing` is a static analysis, so it shouldn't depend on any specific environment. You should do this only once, as a separate stage, instead of per environment.
+* `composer behat || composer behat-rerun` causes the Behat tests to run in their entirety first, and in case their were failed scenarios, a second run is done with only the failed scenarios. This usually gets around intermittent issues like timeouts or similar.
+
+Here's a basic setup of how you can configure Travis CI to work with the test framework (extract):
+```yml
+install:
+  - composer install
+  - composer prepare-tests
+
+script:
+  - composer phpunit
+  - composer behat || composer behat-rerun
+
+jobs:
+  include:
+    - stage: sniff
+      script:
+        - composer lint
+        - composer phpcs
+      env: BUILD=sniff
+    - stage: test
+      php: 7.2
+      env: WP_VERSION=latest
+    - stage: test
+      php: 7.2
+      env: WP_VERSION=3.7.11
+    - stage: test
+      php: 7.2
+      env: WP_VERSION=trunk
+```
+
 #### WP-CLI version
 
 You can point the tests to a specific version ow WP-CLI through the `WP_CLI_BIN_DIR` constant:
