Helpful Docker things

• docker-compose run web <command> to run an arbitrary command in the running container named web
• docker ps to see a list of running containers
• docker exec -it <container ID> /bin/bash to get a command prompt in a running container (use docker ps to see container IDs)

A note on testing views

In an effort to keep this repo simple to set up and run, we have not added any tools for integration testing, such as Capybara. If you do want to make assertions about what is rendered, it may be helpful to use Rspec's render_views macro.
