+### Pinia Plugins
+
+If you have any pinia plugins, make sure to pass them when calling `createTestingPinia()` so they are properly applied. **Do not add them with `testingPinia.use(MyPlugin)`** like you would do with a regular pinia:
+
+```js
+import { createTestingPinia } from '@pinia/testing'
+import { somePlugin } from '../src/stores/plugin'
+
+// inside some test
+const wrapper = mount(Counter, {
+  global: {
+    plugins: [
+      createTestingPinia({
+        stubActions: false,
+        plugins: [somePlugin],
+      }),
+    ],
+  },
+})
+```

 ## E2E tests
 
 When it comes to pinia, you don't need to change anything for e2e tests, that's the whole point of e2e tests! You could maybe test HTTP requests, but that's way beyond the scope of this guide 😄.
