 ## Creating a plugin
 
 To create a plugin, extend the `Plugin` class, and implement one or more release-cycle methods. See the "interface"
-below (where none of the methods is required). Any of these methods can be `async` (except for
-`getIncrementedVersionCI`). If you're interested in writing a plugin, please take a look at
-[the `runTasks` test helper](https://github.com/release-it/release-it/blob/master/test/util/index.js#L33-L54), to see
-how a plugin is integrated in the release process. Also see the
