cake test           # Opens Jasmine SpecRunner. Watches BackpackSpec-Bundle.js for changes
cake docs           # Generate annotated source code with Docco
cake watch          # Recompile CoffeeScript source files when modified to Backpack-bundle.js
cake watch:js       # Recompile CoffeeScript source files when modified to individual .js files
