 # How to Test a zkApp
 
-Writing automated tests for your smart contract is essential to ensure your code is well tested during development. All projects created using the Mina zkApp CLI include the [Jest](https://jestjs.io/) JavaScript testing framework. Although you can use any testing framework, the instructions in this document are supported for Jest.

+## Test zkApps on a lightweight Mina local network
+
+A Docker image for Mina local networks provides a simple and efficient way to deploy and run lightweight Mina blockchain networks for testing zkApps. The `o1labs/mina-local-network` Docker image provides:
+
+- Genesis ledger with pre-funded accounts
+- Accounts manager service
+- Additional port served by reverse proxy to pass requests to the Mina daemon GraphQL endpoint so zkApps work without additional configuration
+- Single commands to launch a single node or multi node network
+
+Pull the [o1labs/mina-local-network]
+(https://hub.docker.com/r/o1labs/mina-local-network) image from Docker Hub.
