+The `importance mark <https://github.com/next-actions/pytest-importance>`__ can
+associate a test with a level of importance. This is used by quality engineers to
+prioritize and group the test determined by the level of impact to the customer.
 
-The ``@pytest.mark.tier`` takes single number as an argument.
+The ``@pytest.mark.importance`` takes a string as an argument. The values used
+are "critical", "high", "medium" and "low".

+    * - critical
+      - Core subset of tests that covers all operational features. This is used for gating where it maybe ran several
+        times a day. To manage resources, the execution all these tests should be kept under an hour.
+    * - high
+      - The most comprehensive set of tests, that covers all operational features.
+    * - medium
+      - Tests that do not impact the operational function, like the CLI commands included in sss-tools package.
+    * - low
+      - Tests that may have a long execution time or are heavy on resources so will be executed during our comprehensive
+        test cycle.

+===================

+The use of `custom markers <https://docs.pytest.org/en/latest/how-to/mark.html>`__
