+## 🧪 Testing & Examples
+
+### 🔧 Integration Test Suite
+```bash
+# Run comprehensive tests
+npm test
+
+# Test specific functionality
+npm run test:oauth
+npm run test:security
+npm run test:mcp
+```
+
+### 📝 Example Workflows
+
+#### 1. Basic Data Retrieval
+```javascript
+// Initialize MCP client
+const client = new MCPClient('http://localhost:8010/mcp');
+
+// Initialize connection
+await client.initialize();
+
+// List tables
+const tables = await client.callTool('list_tables', {
+  include_schema: true
+});
+
+// Get records
+const records = await client.callTool('list_records', {
+  table: 'Tasks',
+  maxRecords: 10,
+  filterByFormula: '{Status} = "Active"'
+});
+```
+
+#### 2. OAuth2 Authentication
+```javascript
+// Start OAuth flow
+const authUrl = await client.callTool('oauth_authorize');
+console.log('Visit:', authUrl.authorization_url);
+
+// Check status after user authorization
+const status = await client.callTool('oauth_status');
+console.log('Authenticated:', status.authenticated);
+```
+
+#### 3. Security Audit
+```javascript
+// Perform security audit
+const audit = await client.callTool('security_audit', {
+  include_tokens: false
+});
+console.log('Security status:', audit);
+```
+

+
+## 🚀 Performance & Optimization
+
+### 📊 Performance Metrics
+- **Response Time**: < 100ms for cached requests
+- **Throughput**: 60 requests/minute/client
+- **Memory Usage**: < 100MB base memory
+- **CPU Usage**: < 5% under normal load
+
+### ⚡ Optimization Tips
+1. **Caching**: Responses cached for 60 seconds
+2. **Connection Pooling**: Reuse HTTP connections
+3. **Batch Requests**: Use pagination for large datasets
+4. **Field Selection**: Request only needed fields
+5. **Filtering**: Use Airtable formulas for server-side filtering
