grunt test does not work

[dmitris]

I would suggest to indicate explicitly that you need to install npm install -g grunt-cli so that users would not have to do preliminary research on the grunt CLI installation 😄

I'm trying to follow the "How to build" instructions (https://github.com/yahoo/context-parser#how-to-build) but it does not work for me:

$ grunt
grunt-cli: The grunt command line interface. (v0.1.13)

Fatal error: Unable to find local grunt.

If you're seeing this message, either a Gruntfile wasn't found or grunt
hasn't been installed locally to your project. For more information about
installing and configuring grunt, please see the Getting Started guide:

Let me know if you need the npm-debug.log file.

It is grunt-mocha-istanbul.

sorry I missed the npm install step before grunt - closing the bug (you can decide if you want to mention npm install -g grunt-cli or not).
