If you know where it works in the spec_helper file, then you can do what I suggested before, but in a new directory. So right now in spec_helper you've got something like: Dir['spec/support/*_.rb'].each {|f| require f} Do the same thing, but put your helpers in a separate directory, and include that _before_ the line that requires 'config/environment' Dir['spec/before_rails_loads/*_.rb'].each {|f| require f} require File.expand_path(File.join(File.dirname(__FILE__),'..','config','environment')) HTH, David > > On Mar 2, 11:33 am, David Chelimsky <dchelim...@gmail.com> wrote: >> On Tue, Mar 2, 2010 at 1:22 PM, drewB <dbats...@gmail.com> wrote: >> > There is a nice little gem that gives you desktop notifications of >> > your spec commands called test_noitifer (http://github.com/fnando/ >> > test_notifier).
