Just for fun - try putting it in a view specs instead and include the helper: describe "FooHelper", :type => :view do include FooHelper # etc end It might be that view specs have services you need for this example that don't exist in helper specs. If it works, then you can use that as a workaround for now and we know where the deficiency lies. If so, please submit a ticket at http://rspec.lighthouseapp.com/.
