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

+
+The pytest-celery plugin uses the environment dependencies to install and configure the default setup matrix.
+The available dependencies are the feature flags for the available :ref:`vendors`.
+
+This guide will explain how to install the plugin, how to use the dependencies feature flags and how to
+fit the configurations to your needs.
+
+We will start by reviewing the standard installation instructions.

+Advanced Installation
+=====================
+
+.. versionadded:: 1.0.0
+
+In this section, we'll improve our understanding of the plugin installation process and how to customize it.
+
+Feature Flags
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The installed dependencies dynamically configure which vendors are available for the plugin to use.
+Each vendor will provide its set of components, such as the broker, backend, and the worker, and the plugin will
+automatically add the matching components to the default setup matrix.
+
+For example, let's assume you want to use the RabbitMQ/Redis combination.
+
+1. For RabbitMQ we will need :pypi:`kombu`.
+2. For Redis we will need :pypi:`redis`.
+
+To install the plugin with the RabbitMQ/Redis combination, you will need to install the following dependencies:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+    pip install "pytest-celery[redis]"
+
+Let's break down the command:
+
+- The ``pytest-celery`` is the plugin package, it will install the plugin alongside Celery and its dependencies,including **Kombu** (if not installed already).
+- The ``[redis]`` is the feature flag for the Redis vendor, it will install the :pypi:`redis` package and configure the plugin to use it which will add the Redis backend and Redis broker components to the default setup matrix.
+
+Experimental Vendors
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+:ref:`vendors` that are in not stable, will not be added to the default setup matrix.
+To use the experimental vendors, you will need to configure the setup matrix manually.
+
+.. tip::
+
+    The automatic vendors detection is implemented in :mod:`defaults.py <pytest_celery.defaults>`.
+
+The ``all`` Extra
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The ``all`` extra is a special feature flag that will install all available vendors and their dependencies.
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+    pip install "pytest-celery[all]"
+
+This command will install the plugin and configure it to use all available **stable** vendors in a setup matrix for each test case
+that uses the :ref:`test-setup`.
+
+.. warning::
+
+    The ``all`` extra will install **all** of the vendors dependencies, including the experimental vendor's dependencies,
+    to allow manual configuration of the setup matrix.

+ Test Setup Matrix
+===================
+
+:Release: |version|
+:Date: |today|
+
+The plugin simplifies the setup of test environments by utilizing the
+`pytest fixtures mechanism <https://docs.pytest.org/en/latest/reference/fixtures.html#fixtures>`_ to configure
+each component of the test setup independently which allows for a high degree of flexibility in matching
+specific Celery architectures to each test case.
+
+In this guide we'll discuss how does the setup matrix work and how to use it.
+
+.. contents::
+    :local:
+    :depth: 2
+
+What is the setup matrix?
+=========================
+
+.. versionadded:: 1.0.0
+
+The setup matrix is a combination of all of the possible Celery architectures that can be used
+with the available :ref:`vendors` for each test. It is automatically generated by the plugin
+to match the installed dependencies when using the default configuration, or it can be manually
+configured to set each test case separately.
+
+The matrix is configured using the :ref:`default-fixtures` of each component and is available
+to the test case using the :ref:`test-setup`.
+
+Common Setups
+=============
+
+.. versionadded:: 1.0.0
+
+The following snippets show how to use the setup matrix to configure manual setups, overriding
+the default configuration using the built-in :ref:`vendors`.
+
+It may be used in conftest.py or in the test file itself.
