+# Development
+
+## Testing
+
+GitHub Actions can be executed locally using the [`act`] tool.
+
+All tests can be executed using:
+
+    act
+
+Individual tests can be executed using `-j` and `--matrix` parameters, e.g.:
+
+    act -j bazel
+    act -j stable
+    act -j nightly
+    act -j examples --matrix example:http_auth_random
+
+By default, all jobs are cached in `~/.cache/actcache`. This can be disabled
+using the `--no-cache-server` parameter.
+
+## Updating Bazel dependencies
+
+When adding or updating Cargo dependencies, the existing Bazel `BUILD` files
+must be regenerated using the [`bazelisk`] tool:
+
+```sh
+bazelisk run //bazel/cargo:crates_vendor -- --repin all
+```
