A jupyter notebook explaining the sample code can be found [here](Tutorial.ipynb).## Quick Testing### Use Virtual Env[virtualenv](https://virtualenv.pypa.io) helps provide a clean environment, suggest to use it to test.`sh $ pip3 install virtualenv # install the virtualenv tool if not installed $ make venv  # create a virtual env $ source venv/bin/activate $ # Do the testing here $ deactivate  # deactive the virtual env $ make clean # clean the temporary files `### Run Integration Testing
The following command will run the testing.`sh $ make check # Check environment and run tests $ make test # Only run test cases $ tox-epy3--test/integration/ca_test.py  # Run specified test case `## Generating Docker images
The following command will build the Docker imagehyperledger/fabric-sdk-py.`sh $ make image `## Regenerating protosMake sure you havegrpcio-toolsinstalled (pip install grpcio-tools)`sh $ make proto `## Change Logs
