Yup that fixed it, thanks!

Hi,
I'm using Rails 3.1.3, rspec-rails 2.9.0, and Ruby 1.9.3p0.
I've been getting recursive errors, where one error is reported
multiple times. It's quite spectacular in a long suite, with the
errors overflowing the console buffer. I've whittled down a simple
example:
require 'spec_helper'
describe public pages do
subject { page }
describe details page do
before do
visit root_path
end
describe when visiting a second page before example do
before { visit sign_in_path }
it { should have_link(Sign in) }
end
end
end
The error here is that sign_in_path should really be signin_path.
But I get that error five times, and when I run with --format
documentation, it looks like RSpec is generating it recursively before
it blows up with a stack trace (see output below).
Obviously this test doesn't really need two before blocks, but
sometimes I do want to visit two pages before a test.
Am I doing something wrong, or is this a bug?

This is what I would expect. There is nothing recursive about this. There
is a failure in
a before block that runs before every example. It's the same as if you had

Thanks for the reply.
Although the output says 5 examples, 5 failures, there is only one
example, hence my confusion about it failing five times. Also, the
documentation output lists each describe block (except the first)
two to four times.
When I fix the error, I get one line per describe, plus one example
completed, as expected:
[myproject (tests)]$ rspec spec/requests/test2* --format documentation
public pages
details page
when visiting a second page before example
should has link Sign in
Finished in 1.44 seconds
1 example, 0 failures
I have since discovered that the problem only occurs when using
--format documentation. Without that, with the error back in place,
RSpec only gives me one error, not five:

This is what I would expect. There is nothing recursive about this. There is
a failure in
a before block that runs before every example. It's the same as if you had the
same
broken code directly in each example.

Thanks for the reply.
Although the output says 5 examples, 5 failures, there is only one
example, hence my confusion about it failing five times. Also, the
documentation output lists each describe block (except the first)
two to four times.
When I fix the error, I get one line per describe, plus one example
completed, as expected:
[myproject (tests)]$ rspec spec/requests/test2* --format documentation
public pages
details page
when visiting a second page before example
should has link Sign in
Finished in 1.44 seconds
1 example, 0 failures
I have since discovered that the problem only occurs when using
--format documentation. Without that, with the error back in place,
RSpec only gives me one error, not five:
[myproject (tests)]$ rspec spec/requests/test2*

Hi,
I'm using Rails 3.1.3, rspec-rails 2.9.0, and Ruby 1.9.3p0.
I've been getting recursive errors, where one error is reported
multiple times. It's quite spectacular in a long suite, with the
errors overflowing the console buffer. I've whittled down a simple
example:
require 'spec_helper'
describe public pages do
subject { page }
describe details page do
before do
visit root_path
end
describe when visiting a second page before example do
before { visit sign_in_path }
it { should have_link(Sign in) }
end
end
end
The error here is that sign_in_path should really be signin_path.
But I get that error five times, and when I run with --format
documentation, it looks like RSpec is generating it recursively before
it blows up with a stack trace (see output below).
Obviously this test doesn't really need two before blocks, but
sometimes I do want to visit two pages before a test.
Am I doing something wrong, or is this a bug?
