-## Running tests
-
-To run the specs for GitLab, you need to run seeds for test db.
+## Installation
- cd gitlabhq
- rake db:seed_fu RAILS_ENV=test
+Install the Gitlab development in a virtual machine with the [Gitlab Vagrant virtual machine](https://github.com/gitlabhq/gitlab-vagrant-vm). Installing it in a virtual machine makes it much easier to set up all the dependencies for integration testing.
-Then you can run the test suite with rake:
-
- rake gitlab:test
