 Recap has integration tests that validate some of Recap's readers against real systems. These tests are located in the `tests/integration` directory.
 
+These tests require a postgres and mysql database to be running to work. To spin them up, you can use docker-compose:
+
+    docker-compose --project-directory tests/ up
+
 Run the integration tests:
 
-    pdm run integration
+    RECAP_URLS='["postgresql://postgres:password@localhost:5432/testdb"]' pdm run integration
 
 These test require various systems to be running as defined in the .github/workflows/ci.yml file.
