+designate tempest plugin::
+
+    $ tox -e venv-tempest -- pip3 install -e <path to designate-tempest-plugin>

+For example, when using a typical devstack setup::
+
+    $ cd /opt/stack/tempest
+    $ tox -e venv-tempest -- pip3 install -e /opt/stack/designate-tempest-plugin
+
 To run all tests from this plugin, install designate into your environment
 and from the tempest repo, run::
 
-    $ tox -e all-plugin -- designate
+    $ tox -e all -- designate
 
 To run a single test case, run with the test case name, for example::
 
-    $ tox -e all-plugin -- designate_tempest_plugin.tests.api.v2.test_zones.ZonesAdminTest.test_get_other_tenant_zone
+    $ tox -e all -- designate_tempest_plugin.tests.api.v2.test_zones.ZonesTest.test_create_zones
 
 To run all tempest tests including this plugin, run::
 
-    $ tox -e all-plugin
