+## Scripts for bounty testing
+
+The scripts are prepared to run on a local, development version of substrate with following changes:
+- `bin/node/runtime/src/lib.rs`
+  ```
+  pub const SpendPeriod: BlockNumber = 1 * MINUTES;
+  pub const BountyDepositPayoutDelay: BlockNumber = 1 * MINUTES
+  ```
+
+To run a script enter the `packages/test-support` directory and run:
+```
+ts-node scripts/<script-name>
+```
+
+Available scripts:
+- `createBounties` - creates a list of bounties,
+  one in each status ( Proposed, Funded, Curator Proposed, Active, Pending Payout, Closed	)
