I have been using Foreman to run my jobs locally which can also export upstart jobs.
Foreman is a ruby gem however, so over the weekend I decided to port a Node version of foreman. http://nodefly.github.com/node-foreman/ I will be adding to the module over the next few weeks, if anyone would like to help field test it, it would be much appreciated. It can export upstart jobs that are not foreman dependent, so that should lower the risk of using it.
