Continuing the discussion from [Search within topic is omitting results](https://meta.discourse.org/t/search-within-topic-is-omitting-results/42982/18):

I was getting things set up to do a PR - Pull Request - and figured it might be nice to include a test.

So I ran  
`bundle exec rspec spec/components/search_spec.rb`  
and got “38 examples, 30 failures” - Ouch!  
\* my change didn’t add any Fails, but then it didn’t remove any either :sadpanda:

After running

```plaintext
RAILS_ENV=development bundle exec rake db:migrate
RAILS_ENV=development bundle exec rspec spec/components/search_spec.rb

```

Much better, only 7 Fails. Some “expecting \_ got 5” etc. and some “RateLimiter LimitExceeded”

I was under the impression that testing was exempt from rate limits.

Am I missing a command option?

TBH, I’m not all that sure that I’ll be able to write some good test code, but I’d rather not be timed out between attempts.
