-## Building the Tests
-
-* You can quickly recompile the e2e testing framework via `go install ./test/e2e`.
-  This will not do anything besides allow you to verify that the go code compiles.
-
-* If you want to run your e2e testing framework without re-provisioning the e2e setup,
-  you can do so via `make WHAT=test/e2e/e2e.test`
-  
-* You can then create a symlink pointing `e2e.test` to `_output/local/bin/linux/amd64/e2e.test`, 
-  and re-run the ginkgo tests by providing relevant flags. For example:
-```sh
-e2e.test --host="127.0.0.1:8080" --provider="local" --repo-root="path/to/main/repo" --kubeconfig="path/to/.kube/config" --ginkgo.focus="regex"
-```
