 A file called ''test.png'' should be created that looks like the following image:
-{{:test.png?|}}
+{{diana:test.png?|}}
 If the file is not created or the image is blank, check the output from ''bdiana'' to determine whether the ''diana.setup'' file and map files were found correctly.
+You can also find more input files to test in the [[https://github.com/metno/diana-extras|diana-extras]] repository on GitHub. The files can be found in the [[https://github.com/metno/diana-extras/tree/master/testfiles/input|testfiles/input]] directory.
