 # How to use this wizardry
 
-This is a gem that allows you to use hosts with [google compute](google_compute_engine.md) hypervisor with [beaker](https://github.com/puppetlabs/beaker). 
+This is a gem that allows you to use hosts with [google compute](google_compute_engine.md) hypervisor with [beaker](https://github.com/puppetlabs/beaker).
 
-### Right Now? (beaker 3.x)
+Beaker will automatically load the appropriate hypervisors for any given hosts file, so as long as your project dependencies are satisfied there's nothing else to do. No need to `require` this library in your tests.
 
-This gem is already included as [beaker dependency](https://github.com/puppetlabs/beaker/blob/master/beaker.gemspec) for you, so you don't need to do anything special to use this gem's functionality with beaker.
+## With Beaker 3.x
 
-### In beaker's Next Major Version? (beaker 4.x)
+This library is included as a dependency of Beaker 3.x versions, so there's nothing to do.
+
+## With Beaker 4.x
+
+As of Beaker 4.0, all hypervisor and DSL extension libraries have been removed and are no longer dependencies. In order to use a specific hypervisor or DSL extension library in your project, you will need to include them alongside Beaker in your Gemfile or project.gemspec. E.g.
+
+~~~ruby
+# Gemfile
+gem 'beaker', '~>4.0'
+gem 'beaker-aws'
+# project.gemspec
+s.add_runtime_dependency 'beaker', '~>4.0'
+s.add_runtime_dependency 'beaker-aws'
+~~~
 
-In beaker's next major version, the requirement for beaker-google will be pulled
-from that repo. When that happens, then the usage pattern will change. In order
-to use this then, you'll need to include beaker-google as a dependency right
-next to beaker itself.
