-#### Autoscan Test
-
-The tests in the [autoscan module](its/autoscan) are designed to detect differences between the issues the Java analyzer can find with and without bytecode.
-The goal here is to spot and fix the potential FPs, and verify the expected FNs between that would show up in [SonarQube Cloud's automatic analysis](https://docs.sonarsource.com/sonarqube-cloud/advanced-setup/automatic-analysis/).
-
-Running this test can be broken down in 2 steps:
-
-1. Compiling the test sources
-2. Executing the autoscan test
-
-##### Compiling the test sources
-
-Make sure that the `java-checks-test-sources` module has been compiled (ie: the .class files in `java-checks-test-sources/target/` are up to date).
-
-In doubt, go the [`java-checks-test-sources`](java-checks-tests-sources) module and run:
-```shell
-# Use java 26!
-mvn clean compile
-```
-
-##### Executing the autoscan test
-
-To run the tests, move to the [`its/autoscan`](its/autoscan) folder and run:
-```shell
-# cd its/autoscan
-# use Java 21!
-mvn clean package --batch-mode --errors --show-version \
-   --activate-profiles it-autoscan \
-  -Dsonar.runtimeVersion=LATEST_RELEASE
-```
-
-The artifacts produced during the test execution will be found in [`its/autoscan/target/actual`](its/autoscan/target/actual).
-You will want to compare the results produced in the autoscan-diff-by-rules
-
-For more detailed information, you can compare the differences between the results found with bytecode and without bytecode by comparing two respective folders:
-* [java-checks-test-sources-mvn](its/autoscan/target/actual/java-checks-test-sources-mvn)
-* [java-checks-test-sources-no-binaries](its/autoscan/target/actual/java-checks-test-sources-no-binaries)
-
-Depending on the results found, you might need to update the ground truth.
-The expected results are listed in [src/test/resources](its/autoscan/src/test/resources/autoscan/diffs).
-
 #### Debugging Integration Tests
 You can debug ITs by adding `-Dmaven.binary=mvnDebug` as an option when running the tests. This will cause the analyzer JVM to wait for a debugger to be attached before continuing.
