-$ bundle exec rake test

-
-You can also run tests for a specific component, like Action Pack, by going into its directory and executing the same command:

-### Railties Setup
-
-Some Railties tests depend on a JavaScript runtime environment, such as having [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/) installed.
-
-### Active Record Setup
-
-Active Record's test suite runs three times: once for SQLite3, once for MySQL, and once for PostgreSQL. We are going to see now how to set up the environment for them.
-
-WARNING: If you're working with Active Record code, you _must_ ensure that the tests pass for at least MySQL, PostgreSQL, and SQLite3. Subtle differences between the various adapters have been behind the rejection of many patches that looked OK when tested only against MySQL.
-
-#### Database Configuration
-
-The Active Record test suite requires a custom config file: `activerecord/test/config.yml`. An example is provided in `activerecord/test/config.example.yml` which can be copied and used as needed for your environment.
+#### Arch Linux
-#### MySQL and PostgreSQL
-
-To be able to run the suite for MySQL and PostgreSQL we need their gems. Install
-first the servers, their client libraries, and their development files.
-
-On macOS, you can run:
-
-```bash
-$ brew install mysql
-$ brew install postgresql
-```
-
-Follow the instructions given by Homebrew to start these.
-
-On Ubuntu, just run:
-
-```bash
-$ sudo apt-get install mysql-server libmysqlclient-dev

-#### Install Redis From Source
+### Install JavaScript dependencies
-Redis' documentation discourage installations with package managers as those are usually outdated. Installing from source and bringing the server up is straight forward and well documented on [Redis' documentation](https://redis.io/download#installation).
-
-#### Install Redis From Package Manager
-
-On macOS, you can run:
-
-```bash
-$ brew install redis
-```
-
-Follow the instructions given by Homebrew to start these.
-
-On Ubuntu, just run:
-
-```bash
-$ sudo apt-get install redis-server
-```
-
-On Fedora or CentOS (requires EPEL enabled), just run:
-
-```bash
-$ sudo yum install redis
-```
-
-If you are running Arch Linux, just run:
-
-```bash
-$ sudo pacman -S redis
-$ sudo systemctl start redis
-```
-
-FreeBSD users will have to run the following:
-
-```bash
-# portmaster databases/redis
-```
-
-### Active Storage Setup
-
-When working on Active Storage, it is important to note that you need to
-install its JavaScript dependencies while working on that section of the
-codebase. In order to install these dependencies, it is necessary to
-have Yarn, a Node.js package manager, available on your system. A
-prerequisite for installing this package manager is that
-[Node.js](https://nodejs.org) is installed.
-
-
-On macOS, you can run:
-
-```bash
-$ brew install yarn
-```
-
-On Ubuntu, you can run:
-
-```bash
-$ curl -sS https://dl.yarnpkg.com/debian/pubkey.gpg | sudo apt-key add -
-$ echo "deb https://dl.yarnpkg.com/debian/ stable main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/yarn.list
-
-$ sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install yarn
-```
-
-On Fedora or CentOS, just run:
-
-```bash
-$ sudo wget https://dl.yarnpkg.com/rpm/yarn.repo -O /etc/yum.repos.d/yarn.repo
-
-$ sudo yum install yarn
-```
-
-Finally, after installing Yarn, you will need to run the following
-command inside of the `activestorage` directory to install the dependencies:
+If you installed Yarn, you will need to install the javascript dependencies:
```bash
+$ cd activestorage
$ yarn install
```
-Extracting previews, tested in Active Storage's test suite requires third-party
-applications, ImageMagick for images, FFmpeg for video and muPDF for PDFs, and on macOS also XQuartz
-and Poppler. Without these applications installed, Active Storage tests will
-raise errors.
+### Install Bundler gem
-On macOS you can run:
+Get a recent version of [Bundler](https://bundler.io/)
```bash
-$ brew install ffmpeg
-$ brew install imagemagick
-$ brew cask install xquartz
-$ brew install mupdf-tools
-$ brew install poppler
+$ gem install bundler
+$ gem update bundler
```
-On Ubuntu, you can run:
+and run:

-$ sudo apt-get update
-$ sudo apt-get install ffmpeg
-$ sudo apt-get install imagemagick
-$ sudo apt-get install mupdf mupdf-tools
+$ bundle install
```
-On Fedora or CentOS, just run:
+or:
```bash
-$ sudo yum install ffmpeg
-$ sudo yum install imagemagick
-$ sudo yum install mupdf
+$ bundle install --without db
```
-FreeBSD users can just run:
+if you don't need to run Active Record tests.
-```bash
-# pkg install imagemagick
-# pkg install ffmpeg
-# pkg install mupdf
-```
-
-On Arch Linux, you can run:
+### Contribute to Rails
-```bash
-$ sudo pacman -S ffmpeg
-$ sudo pacman -S imagemagick
-$ sudo pacman -S mupdf mupdf-tools
-$ sudo pacman -S poppler
-```
