I just opened my first PR (🎉)  
[https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/12674](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/12674)

And unfortunately it failed one of the CI checks, specifically: `core backend > Core RSpec`. And the particular test it failed on is: `TopicsController#invite when logged in when user is a group manager should attach group to the invite.`

I want to reproduce this test failure locally so I can tell whether or not I’ve fixed the problem before committing new code.

However, I can’t find any documentation on running tests locally.

Can anyone get me started?
