• Clone the repository at the same level of a Kibana > 4.3 clone
• If needed, switch to the same node version as Kibana using nvm (e.g. nvm use 6.9.0)
• Install dependencies with npm install
• Install the plugin to Kibana and start watching for changes by running npm start
• run tests with npm test

If you are running kibana from folder with a name other than kibana, e.g. kibi

$ gulp dev  --kibanahomepath=/path/to/kibi
$ gulp test --kibanahomepath=/path/to/kibi
