Introduction to the Painlev\'e property, test and analysis
  This short survey presents the essential features of what is called Painlev\'e analysis, i.e. the set of methods based on the singularities of differential equations in order to perform their explicit integration. Full details can be found in \textit{The Painlev\'e handbook} or in various lecture notes posted on arXiv.
