# Running the specs
Howdy brave lil' one! To run the specs you'll need courage, hard work and some luck:

1) Install from source my "special" fork of em-spec at http://github.com/macournoyer/em-spec.

2) Edit the file spec/talker.example.yml with your info and rename it to spec/talker.yml.

3) Run rake and everything should be green, birds should start signing and someone will make you a chocolate cake

(results may vary).
