 ## Running Unit Tests
 
-Tests to verify compatibility with the most recent AWX code are
-in `awx_collection/test/awx`. These tests require that Python packages
-are available for all of `awx`, `ansible`, `tower_cli`, and the collection
-itself.
+Tests to verify compatibility with the most recent AWX code are in `awx_collection/test/awx`.
+These can be ran by `make test_collection` in the development container.
 
-### Inside Development Container
-
-The target `make prepare_collection_venv` will prepare some requirements
-in the `awx_collection_test_venv` folder so that `make test_collection` can
-be executed to actually run the tests. A single test can be run via:
-
-```
-make test_collection COLLECTION_TEST_DIRS=awx_collection/test/awx/test_organization.py
-```

-### Manually
-
-As a faster alternative (if you do not want to use the container), or to
-run against Ansible or `tower-cli` source, it is possible to set up a
-working environment yourself:

 ## Running Integration Tests
 
 The integration tests require a virtualenv with `ansible` >= 2.9 and `tower_cli`.
