+The following has been tested against IntelliJ IDEA 2016.2.2
 
 ## Steps
 
 _Within your locally cloned spring-framework working directory:_
 
-1. Pre-compile `spring-oxm` with `./gradlew cleanIdea :spring-oxm:compileTestJava`
-2. Import into IntelliJ IDEA (File-> import project -> import from external model -> Gradle)
-3. Set the Project JDK as appropriate (1.8+)
-4. Exclude the `spring-aspects` module (Go to File-> Project Structure -> Modules)
-5. Code away

 2. `spring-aspects` does not compile out of the box due to references to aspect types unknown to
 IntelliJ IDEA. See http://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-64446 for details. In the meantime, the
-'spring-aspects' should be excluded from the overall project to avoid compilation errors.

 3. While all JUnit tests pass from the command line with Gradle, many will fail when run from
 IntelliJ IDEA. Resolving this is a work in progress. If attempting to run all JUnit tests from within
 IntelliJ IDEA, you will likely need to set the following VM options to avoid out of memory errors:
     -XX:MaxPermSize=2048m -Xmx2048m -XX:MaxHeapSize=2048m
