or by directly calling the script
sudo /etc/init.d/gitlab start

Start it with [Foreman](https://github.com/ddollar/foreman)
bundle exec foreman start -p 3000
or start each component separately
bundle exec rails s
bundle exec rake sidekiq:start
### Run the tests
* Seed the database
bundle exec rake db:setup RAILS_ENV=test
bundle exec rake db:seed_fu RAILS_ENV=test
* Run all tests
bundle exec rake gitlab:test
* [RSpec](http://rspec.info/) unit and functional tests
