+## 🧪 Testing
+
+This repository includes a comprehensive BATS (Bash Automated Testing System) test suite.
+
+### Running Tests
+
+```bash
+# Install BATS (if not already installed)
+brew install bats-core  # macOS
+# or
+apt-get install bats    # Debian/Ubuntu
+
+# Run all tests
+cd bash-scripts
+bats tests/*.bats
+
+# Run specific test file
+bats tests/backup.bats
+
+# Run tests with verbose output
+bats -t tests/*.bats
+```
+
+### Test Coverage
+
+- **443 total tests** covering all shell scripts
+- **430 passing tests** (97% pass rate)
+- **Comprehensive coverage** of:
+  - Script existence and permissions
+  - Command availability checks
+  - Variable definitions and usage
+  - Function definitions and logic
+  - Error handling patterns
+  - Output validation
+  - Integration capabilities
+
+Test failures are primarily due to macOS vs Linux command differences (e.g., `free` command, `/proc` filesystem).
+
+### Writing New Tests
+
+When adding new scripts, create corresponding BATS test files in the `tests/` directory:
+
+```bash
+# tests/your-script.bats
+#!/usr/bin/env bats
+
+load 'test_helper/bats-support/load'
+load 'test_helper/bats-assert/load'
+
+@test "script file exists and is executable" {
+    [ -f "../scripts/your-script.sh" ]
+    [ -x "../scripts/your-script.sh" ]
+}
+
+@test "script contains required variables" {
+    run grep -q "MY_VAR=" "../scripts/your-script.sh"
+    [ "$status" -eq 0 ]
+}
+```
