Installation
-==================
+============
+
+The VNF Validation Platform (VVP) can be run from source as a normal
+Python executable or a Docker image is provided. This section will
+describe how to setup and install the ``vvp/validation-scripts`` and
+run from source.
-Installation happens through the vvp-devkit project.
+Installation and configuration of Docker is beyond the scope of this document,
+but you can refer to the :ref:`Docker Execution <vvp-docker-execution>`
+instructions for more details on running the validations as from
+the Docker image.
-Environment
+Pre-requisites
--------------
-Steps
-----------
+This document assumes you have the following system-level utilities
+installed.
+
+Please refer to the respective sites for these tools for the appropriate
+installation instructions for your given operating system.
+
+* `Python 3.6+ <https://www.python.org/downloads/>`__
+* `Git <https://git-scm.com/>`__
+
+Setup
+------
+
+The source code for VVP can be obtained from the `ONAP Gerrit site <https://gerrit.onap.org/r/#/admin/projects/vvp/validation-scripts>`__
+or its `GitHub mirror <https://github.com/onap/vvp-validation-scripts>`__.
+
+1. Clone the source from your desired repository host:
+
+ Choose **one** of the following ``git clone`` commands::
+
+ > git clone https://github.com/onap/vvp-validation-scripts.git
+ > git clone https://gerrit.onap.org/r/vvp/validation-scripts
+
+2. (*Optional*) If desired, you can create a virtual Python environment to
+ avoid installing VVP's dependencies in your system level installation
+ of Python::
+
+ > python -m venv vvp
+ > source vvp/activate
+
+3. Install the required dependencies with the following command::
+
+ > python pip install -r requirements.txt
