Description
This page describes starting MongoDB with a config file parameter, which it doesn't describe how to create and doesn't state that it is optional. Instead, it would be easier if it simply described how to start MongoDB without the config parameter.
In addition, it states you need to have mongod on the PATH, however for testing purposes, mongod can be run from the /bin directory without updating the PATH (which isn't described)
