 Installing
 ----------
 
-Clone this repository to the destination machine, and call from the repo::
+From the tempest directory, setup the tempest virtual environment for the
+Octavia tempest plugin::
 
-    $ pip install -e .
+    $ tox -e venv-tempest -- pip3 install -e <path to octavia-tempest-plugin>
+
+For example, when using a typical devstack setup::
+
+    $ cd /opt/stack/tempest
+    $ tox -e venv-tempest -- pip3 install -e /opt/stack/octavia-tempest-plugin
 
 Running the tests
 -----------------
 
 To run all the tests from this plugin, call from the tempest repo::
 
-    $ tox -e all-plugin -- octavia_tempest_plugin
+    $ tox -e all -- octavia_tempest_plugin
 
 To run a single test case, call with full path, for example::
 
-    $ tox -e all-plugin -- octavia_tempest_plugin.tests.scenario.v2.test_traffic_ops.TrafficOperationsScenarioTest.test_basic_traffic
+    $ tox -e all -- octavia_tempest_plugin.tests.scenario.v2.test_traffic_ops.TrafficOperationsScenarioTest.test_basic_traffic
 
 To retrieve a list of all tempest tests, run::
