## Testing locally
1. Install rust (stable)
2. Run `cargo build --verbose && cargo test --verbose`
3. That's it!
1. Install the latest Rust toolchain (stable)
2. Install a C Compiler, Make, Perl and the libssl-dev package on platforms where they are required
3. First build the database server by running: `cargo build --verbose`
4. Now start the database server in the background
5. Now run `cargo test --verbose -- --test-threads=1`.
**Note:** Make sure that run the tests in a single-threaded way, else you'll find that a lot of tests fail. This is because several of the tests use the same keys
