Google would have helped, also the Rails Guides cover testing (and pretty much everything else). The tests should be in the test folder of the application. How to run then will depend to some extent on the sort of tests the developer provided. You could try rake db:test:prepare which should create the test database, then bundle exec rake test but as I said it will depend on the sort of tests the developer provided. > Like if I was guiding someone > on a Dotnet aspx IIS Server set-up I'd be saying "take this test page - > put it in your default-web directory - run it and see what output you > get etc."...

I suppose you could create a new rails app using the version of rails that your app uses and use the config.ru from that.
