-Write and run tests
--------------------
-
-``geocat-viz`` uses `pytest <https://pytest.org/>`__ for unit tests. Currently,
-we have unit tests written in both ``pytest`` and ``unittest``. We are in the
-process of converting all of our tests to ``pytest`` and we encourage you to
-write new tests using ``pytest``.
-
-To run the tests locally, use the following command from the root of the
-repository:
-
-.. code-block:: bash
-
-    pytest
-
-To run a specific test, use the following command:
-
-.. code-block:: bash
-
-    pytest tests/test_mod.py::test_func
-
-These tests will also run automatically when you open a pull request using
-GitHub Actions and the ``.github/workflows/ci.yml`` file.
-
-See the `pytest documentation <https://pytest.org/>`__ for more information.
