 ### Extra API methods
 
 Adding to the methods defined by [`interface-ipfs-core`](https://github.com/ipfs/interface-ipfs-core), `js-ipfs-api` exposes a set of extra utility methods.
 
-A complete documentation for these methods is coming with: https://github.com/ipfs/js-ipfs-api/pull/305

 ### Testing
 
-We run tests by executing `npm test` in a terminal window, this will run both Node.js and Browser tests, both in Chrome and PhantomJS. To ensure that the module conforms with [`interface-ipfs-core`](https://github.com/ipfs/interface-ipfs-core) spec, we run the batch o tests provided by the interface module, which can be found [here](https://github.com/ipfs/interface-ipfs-core/tree/master/src)

 * **Perform code reviews**. More eyes will help a) speed the project along b) ensure quality and c) reduce possible future bugs.

 * **Contribute to the [FAQ repository](https://github.com/ipfs/faq/issues)** with any questions you have about IPFS or any of the relevant technology. A good example would be asking, 'What is a merkledag tree?'. If you don't know a term, odds are, someone else doesn't either. Eventually, we should have a good understanding of where we need to improve communications and teaching together to make IPFS and IPN better.
