[rspec-users] rspec-users Digest, Vol 70, Issue 13

First issue temporarily sorted by using the 'include' for now until 2.10 comes out.

Please ignore the second issue because while doing find and replace I did "full_path" instead of "fullpath". My bad, apologies for that.

Kind regards,

Nas

Is imaginary_method_with_example_calls called in a config.before hook? If so, the issue is that controller is nil [1]. This has been fixed on master, but not yet released (look for the 2.10 release in the next couple of weeks.

I'd check the rails docs for this one. I'm not immediately familiar w/ what's going on.

HTH,
