+# Pre-requisites to running tests
 
-For example:
+- Download & run [httpbox](https://github.com/Chatterino/httpbox/releases/latest)  
+  `httpbox --port 9051`
 
-```bash
-docker run --network=host --detach ghcr.io/chatterino/twitch-pubsub-server-test:latest
-docker run -p 9051:80 --detach kennethreitz/httpbin
-```
