$ cd test
$ ruby unit/<<name of model>>_test.rb

If you want to run a specific test (that you have defined, say in
mymodel.rb), you can run

$ ruby unit/mymodel.rb -n test_min_is_less_than_max

assuming you want to run the "min is less than max" text, also known as
"test_min_is_less_than_max".

At least, that's what works for me :-)
