 # Testing
 
 There are 5 processes, so you'll need 5 terminal windows or screen / tmux
-sessions:
+sessions. Run the processes in this order:
 
-1. TCP end server: `nc -l -p 30382`
-2. QUIC relay server: `RUST_LOG=quic_demo_relay_server=debug cargo run --bin quic_demo_relay_server`
-3. Server-side proxy: `RUST_LOG=quic_demo_end_server=debug cargo run --bin quic_demo_end_server`
-4. Client-side proxy: `RUST_LOG=quic_demo_client cargo run --bin quic_demo_client`
+1. QUIC relay server: `RUST_LOG=quic_demo_relay_server=debug cargo run --bin quic_demo_relay_server`
+2. Server-side proxy: `RUST_LOG=quic_demo_end_server=debug cargo run --bin quic_demo_end_server`
+3. Client-side proxy: `RUST_LOG=quic_demo_client cargo run --bin quic_demo_client`
+4. TCP end server: `nc -l -p 30382`
 5. TCP end client: `nc 127.0.0.1 30381`
 
 The netcat processes from steps 1 and 5 should now be connected to each other.
