What’s the best or fastest way to get Discourse installed on Travis for testing a client for the Discourse API ?

It appears as though the `discourse_api` gem uses `webmock` so I think does not use a real Discourse installation.

It would be nice to install Discourse on Travis and test against it for my test suite. Any example travis files for that?
