 After a successful build, you can run individual tests as follows. First, make
 sure you're in the top-level package directory, where debian/ is. Then:
 
+ $ export SAGE_ROOT = $PWD/sage
+ $ export SAGE_SPKG_INST = $PWD/sage/local/var/lib/sage/installed
  $ export SAGE_LOCAL=$PWD/debian/build/usr
  $ export PYTHONPATH=$SAGE_LOCAL/lib/python2.7/dist-packages
  $ cd sage
  sage$ ./sage -t --long src/sage/geometry/riemannian_manifolds/parametrized_surface3d.py
 
+One can also run the tests using the installed sage packages. To this end
+run in a sage source directory (with Debian patches applied)
+
+ sage$ SAGE_SRC=src sage -t -p --all --long --logfile=ptestlong.log
