I am new to rspec. I followed a few tutorials and set it up to test my existing rails project. I ran the rspec generators and created spec/user_spec.rb to test my user.rb model.
The user.rb file starts with: class User < ActiveRecord::Base The user_spec.rb file starts with: describe User do When I run the test (using rake spec, bundle exec autotest, rspec spec/user_spec.rb ) I get the error: `const_missing': uninitialized constant User (NameError) within the following trace: loading autotest/rspec2 bundle exec /Users/Sam/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.8.7-p330/bin/ruby -S /Users/Sam/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.8.7-p330/bundler/gems/rspec-core-011b1ce34016/bin/rspec --tty '/Users/Sam/Documents/Development/Friend-Mapper/friend_mapper_rails/spec/user_spec.rb' /Users/Sam/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.8.7-p330/bundler/gems/rspec-core-011b1ce34016/lib/rspec/core/backward_compatibility.rb:20:in `const_missing': uninitialized constant User (NameError) from /Users/Sam/Documents/Development/Friend-Mapper/friend_mapper_rails/spec/user_spec.rb:1 from /Users/Sam/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.8.7-p330/bundler/gems/rspec-core-011b1ce34016/lib/rspec/core/configuration.rb:386:in `load' from /Users/Sam/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.8.7-p330/bundler/gems/rspec-core-011b1ce34016/lib/rspec/core/configuration.rb:386:in `load_spec_files' from /Users/Sam/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.8.7-p330/bundler/gems/rspec-core-011b1ce34016/lib/rspec/core/configuration.rb:386:in `map' from /Users/Sam/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.8.7-p330/bundler/gems/rspec-core-011b1ce34016/lib/rspec/core/configuration.rb:386:in `load_spec_files' from /Users/Sam/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.8.7-p330/bundler/gems/rspec-core-011b1ce34016/lib/rspec/core/command_line.rb:18:in `run' from /Users/Sam/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.8.7-p330/bundler/gems/rspec-core-011b1ce34016/lib/rspec/core/runner.rb:55:in `run_in_process' from /Users/Sam/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.8.7-p330/bundler/gems/rspec-core-011b1ce34016/lib/rspec/core/runner.rb:46:in `run' from /Users/Sam/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.8.7-p330/bundler/gems/rspec-core-011b1ce34016/lib/rspec/core/runner.rb:10:in `autorun' from /Users/Sam/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.8.7-p330/bundler/gems/rspec-core-011b1ce34016/bin/rspec:4 I tried a sample app (http://relishapp.com/rspec/file/twominutetutorial) which worked fine. I suspect that the issue is that rspec is not loading up the files from my rails project. Which configurations do I need to fix for this to work?
