 ### Testing
 
 We ask contributors to implement the unit tests necessary to check the correctness of their
-implementations. Besides, whenever usage examples are provided, we require the example's code to be

 insufficient code coverage. To ensure that the tensors generated during the tests are on the right
 device and dtype, you have to use the partial functions defined in `tests/utils/tensors.py` to
 instantiate tensors. For instance, instead of
