+## Development
+
+To make it easy to test during development of the consumer, two stubs are provided in the `stub` folder.
+
+One, under the `producer` folder, called `producer` that stubs the producer and pushes an array with one message with `eventSeverity` alternating between `NORMAL` and `CRITICAL`. To build and start the stub, do the following:
+>1. cd stub/producer
+>2. go build
+>3. ./producer
+
+One, under the `sdnr` folder, called `sdnr` that at startup will listen for REST calls and print the body of them. By default, it listens to the port `3904`, but his can be overridden by passing a `-port [PORT]` flag when starting the stub. To build and start the stub, do the following:
+>1. cd stub/sdnr
+>2. go build
+>3. ./sdnr
+
+Mocks needed for unit tests have been generated using `github.com/stretchr/testify/mock` and are checked in under the `mocks` folder. **Note!** Keep in mind that if any of the mocked interfaces change, a new mock for that interface must be generated and checked in.
