-### Testing Setup
+Note that tests/test_libp2p/test_libp2p.py contains an end-to-end messaging test between two libp2p hosts, which is the bulk of our proof of concept.
-
-During development, you might like to have tests run on every file save.
-
-Show flake8 errors on file change:
-
-```sh
-# Test flake8
-when-changed -v -s -r -1 libp2p/ tests/ -c "clear; flake8 libp2p tests && echo 'flake8 success' || echo 'error'"
-```
-
-Run multi-process tests in one command, but without color:
-
-```sh
-# in the project root:
-pytest --numprocesses=4 --looponfail --maxfail=1
-# the same thing, succinctly:
-pytest -n 4 -f --maxfail=1
-```
-
-Run in one thread, with color and desktop notifications:
-
-```sh
-cd venv
-ptw --onfail "notify-send -t 5000 'Test failure ⚠⚠⚠⚠⚠' 'python 3 test on py-libp2p failed'" ../tests ../libp2p
