## Usage

### Prerequisites
1. Start the PeerPigeon development environment:
   ```bash
   npm run dev
   ```
   This starts both the signaling server (ws://localhost:3000) and HTTP server (http://localhost:8080)

2. Open multiple browser windows/tabs to simulate multiple peers

### Getting Started

1. **Open the Testing Suite**
   - Navigate to `http://localhost:8080/examples/browser-3/`
   - The interface will automatically initialize PeerPigeon with all features enabled

2. **Connect to Signaling Server**
   - Default URL: `ws://localhost:3000`
   - Click "Connect" button
   - Status will update to show connection state

3. **Test Features**
   - Use the tabbed interface to explore different feature categories
   - Each tab contains comprehensive testing tools for that feature set
   - System log at the bottom shows all activity

### Testing Workflows

#### Basic Connectivity Test
1. Open 2+ browser windows with the testing suite
2. Connect all instances to the signaling server
3. Verify peers appear in the "Connected Peers" list
4. Test broadcast and direct messaging

#### Media Streaming Test
1. Grant camera/microphone permissions
2. Select desired devices in Media tab
3. Enable video/audio and start media
4. Verify local video preview appears
5. Check remote streams from other connected peers

#### DHT Storage Test
1. Store data using the DHT interface
2. Retrieve data from other peer instances
3. Test subscriptions by updating values
4. Verify real-time notifications work

#### Encryption Test
1. Send encrypted broadcasts
2. Verify automatic key exchange occurs
3. Test manual key management
4. Confirm encrypted messages are received and decrypted

#### Performance Testing
1. Use the API Testing tab
2. Configure message count and size
3. Run performance tests
4. Monitor results and system performance
