Access Kibana under https://localhost:5601 -> the lazy optimizations may take some minutes for the initial pageload.
In the tests folder, run the following command to run the tests on localhost:5601:
./gradlew test
If you are running the development instance you have to adjust the base url, as it will have a randomly generated suffix:
./gradlew test -Dgeb.build.baseUrlTest=https://localhost:5601/znr/
