+# MCUBoot test application
+This test is intended to compile a hello-world program taking into account
+the existence of the MCUBoot bootloader at the first 32K in the ROM.
+
+For this first support, a pre-compiled mynewt MCUBoot binary is downloaded at
+compile time.
+
+The goal is to produce an ELF file which is linked to be flashed at a
+`BOOTLOADER_OFFSET` offset rather than the beginning of ROM. MCUBoot also
+expects an image padded with some specific headers containing the version
+information, and TLVs with hash and signing information. This is done through
+the imgtool.py application, which is executed automatically by the build
+system.
+
+This test can be called using `make mcuboot` to produce such ELF file,
+which can also be flashed using `make flash-mcuboot`.This command also flashes
+the pre-compiled bootloader.
+
+It's also possible to build and flash MCUBoot by following the instructions on
+the MCUBoot repository either using mynewt or zephyr operating systems.
