 ### Integration tests
 
-The continuous integration runs a set of [gherkin integration tests](https://github.com/open-feature/test-harness/blob/main/features/evaluation.feature) using [`flagd`](https://github.com/open-feature/flagd). These tests do not run with the default maven profile. If you'd like to run them locally, you can start the flagd testbed with `docker run -p 8013:8013 ghcr.io/open-feature/flagd-testbed:latest` and then run `mvn test -P integration-test`.
