+### Verify Intel® QuickAssist Technology provisioning
+This workload runs [qatlib](https://github.com/intel/qatlib) sample tests for compression and crypto. Refer to the [qatlib readme](https://github.com/intel/qatlib/blob/main/INSTALL) for more details. 
+*	Build the workload container image. 
+
+```$ oc apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/intel/intel-technology-enabling-for-openshift/main/tests/l2/qat/qatlib_build.yaml ```
+
+*	Deploy and execute the workload.
+
+    * Run with privileged SCC
+```$oc adm policy add-scc-to-user privileged -z intel-qat```
+
+```$ oc apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/intel/intel-technology-enabling-for-openshift/main/tests/l2/qat/qatlib_job.yaml```
+
+* Check the results.
