+## WasmBasicTestApp
+
+This is a test application used by various Wasm.Build.Tests. The idea is to share a common behavior (so that we don't have to maintain many test apps) and tweak it for the test case.
+It typically suits scenario where you need more than a plain template app. If the test case is too different, feel free to create another app.
+
+### Usage
+
+The app reads `test` query parameter and uses it to switch between test cases. Entrypoint is `main.js`.
+There is common unit, then switch based on test case for modifying app startup, then app starts and executes next switch based on test case for actually running code.
+
+Some test cases passes additional parameters to differentiate behavior, see `src/mono/wasm/Wasm.Build.Tests/TestAppScenarios`.
+
+### Running out side of WBT
+
+One of the benefits is that you can copy the app out of intree and run the app without running Wasm.Build.Tests with just `dotnet run`.
