 # neofs-testlib
 This library provides building blocks and utilities to facilitate development of automated tests for NeoFS system.
 
-## Repository structure

 ## Installation
-TODO
+Library can be installed via pip:
+```shell
+$ pip install neofs-testlib
+```
+
+## Library structure
+The library provides the following primary components:
+ * `cli` - wrappers on top of neoFS command-line tools. These wrappers execute on a shell and provide type-safe interface for interacting with the tools.
+ * `reporter` - abstraction on top of test reporting tool like Allure. Components of the library will report their steps and attach artifacts to the configured reporter instance.
+ * `shell` - shells that can be used to execute commands. Currently library provides local shell (on machine that runs the code) or SSH shell that connects to a remote machine via SSH.
