When using OSX with boot2docker, use: open http://$(boot2docker ip):8080

Run the test "tutorial"

    docker exec dockerairflow_webserver_1 airflow backfill tutorial -s 2015-05-01 -e 2015-06-01

Scale the number of workers

Easy scaling using docker-compose:

    docker-compose scale worker=5

This can be used to scale to a multi node setup using docker swarm.
