-## Testing (Molecule)
+### pre-commit
+
+Any code submitted to this project is checked with the
+[pre-commit](https://pre-commit.com/) framework. To make sure that your
+code will pass the checks, you can execute the pre-commit checks locally before
+"git pushing" your code.
+
+Here is how:
+
+```console
+make venv
+source .venv/bin/activate
+make install-pre-commit
+make pre-commit-run
+```
+
+You can also [install](https://pre-commit.com/#install) the pre-commit tool so
+that any commit will be checked automatically.
