Testing and Troubleshooting
===========================
+The following shell session illustrates how the wallet can be used to withdraw
+electronic cash from the exchange and subsequently spend it. For these steps,
+a merchant backend is not required, as the wallet acts as a merchant.
+
+
+.. code-block:: shell-session
+
+ # This will now output a payto URI that money needs to be sent to in order to allow withdrawal
+ # of taler coins
+ $ taler-wallet-cli advanced withdraw-manually --exchange $EXCHANGE_URL --amount EUR:10.50
+
+ # Show the status of the manual withdrawal operation
+ $ taler-wallet-cli transactions
+
+ #
+ # At this point, a bank transfer to the exchange's bank account
+ # needs to be made with the correct subject / remittance information
+ # as instructed by the wallet after the first step.
+ #
+
+ # Check whether the exchange received an incoming bank transfer
+ [root@exchange-online]# taler-exchangewire-gateway-client --section exchange-account-1 --credit-history
+
+ # Once the transfer has been made, try completing the withdrawal
+ $ taler-wallet-cli run-pending
+
+ # Check status of transactions and show balance
+ $ taler-wallet-cli transactions
+ $ taler-wallet-cli balance
+
+ # Now, directly deposit coins with the exchange into a target account
+ # (Usually, a payment is made via a merchant. The wallet provides
+ # this functionality for testing.)
+ $ taler-wallet-cli deposit create EUR:5 payto://sepa/$IBAN
+
+ # Check if transaction was successful.
+ # (If not, fix issue with exchange and run "run-pending" command again)
+ $ taler-wallet-cli transactions
+
+ # The wallet can also track if the exchange wired the money to the merchant account.
+ # The "deposit group id" can be found in the output of the transactions list.
+ $ taler-wallet-cli deposit track $DEPOSIT_GROUP_ID

FIXMEs
======
+* we need to make sure that after every step there is some command
+ that can be executed to make sure the previous step succeeded /
+ the admin is on the right track.
+* We should describe the systemd services that need to be running
* we should have some summary with the inventory of services that should be running
* how do we know what offline signing steps are still required? We don't have
a tool for that ...
-* we need a better way to validate that the exchange is actually working correctly
* when multiple TWGs are configured, which one will be used by the taler-exchange-transfer?
+* we should have some tooling to show the current configuration state of the exchange,
+ which then tells the admin what to do next (sign keys, configure account, configure wire fee),
+ based on the /management and /keys / /wire APIs
+* On Ubuntu focal fossa, I get the following warning on "apt update", are we doing something wrong?
+
+ N: Skipping acquire of configured file 'main/binary-i386/Packages' as
+ repository 'https://deb.taler.net/apt/ubuntu focal-fossa InRelease' doesn't
+ support architecture 'i386'
