After checking out the gem, I usually start by creating a gemset with rvm:

    rvm use 2.2.2@sorcery --create

Then I install bundler

    gem install bundler

Then run

    bundle install

Now you have a few important rake tasks at your disposal:

rake bundle - will run bundle install recursively on all subfolders which have a Gemfile.

rake bundle_update - will run bundle update recursively.

The default rake task from the gem root folder runs all specs. That includes specs for all of Sorcery supported platforms and ORMs (Rails 5, ActiveRecord, Mongoid, MongoMapper etc.).

The ActiveRecord specs expect a local MySQL server present at the default port.

The Mongoid/MongoMapper specs expect a local Mongoid server present at the default port.
