Hello,

I’m trying to run this background process.  
However, I keep getting this error when running all the test suits - Connection refused - connect(2) for “127.0.0.1” port 8986  
Here’s the code  
test:  
override:  
- bundle exec rake hydra:test\_server:  
background: true  
- bundle exec rake spec

It could be great if anybody could give us a little help.

Thanks

Vivian
