-After checking out the repo, run `bin/setup` to install dependencies. Then, run `rake test` to run the tests. You can also run `bin/console` for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.
+After checking out the repo, run `bin/setup` to install dependencies. Next, configure your system with a PostgreSQL data source called `ODBCAdapterPostgreSQLTest` (you can alternatively set the environment variables `CONN_STR` or `DSN`). Then, run `rake test` to run the tests. You can also run `bin/console` for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.
 
 To install this gem onto your local machine, run `bundle exec rake install`. To release a new version, update the version number in `version.rb`, and then run `bundle exec rake release`, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the `.gem` file to [rubygems.org](https://rubygems.org).
