I'd move haml and sass out of these groups - you need them in production.

Don't need ^^ this because rspec-rails already depends on rspec (so it's

Strongly recommend sticking to releases while you're getting your feet wet.
gem 'capybara', '1.0.0.beta1'
Otherwise everytime you update the bundle you'll get a different revision.

visit and page are not available in view specs. Stick with render and rendered.
If you're using Capybara-1.0.0.beta1 you can use the have_selector method in
the view spec.

Not sure about this part. Looks like it thinks its an integration test (which
it is not - it's an ActionController::TestCase).
