Hey David, thanks for the reply.
Sadly nothing worked and here are my results
With ....
Dir["spec_helpers/**/*.rb"].each {|f| puts "loading ... #{f}"; require f}
I didn't find any file to load and got the following error....
/home/anthony/Development/websites/ruby/GMFT/spec/spec_helper.rb:84:in
`block in <top (required)>': uninitialized constant ModelMacros (NameError)
With ....
Dir["spec/spec_helpers/**/*.rb"].each {|f| puts "loading ... #{f}"; require
f}
I found a file to load but require couldn't find it ....
loading ... spec/spec_helpers/model_macros.rb
/home/anthony/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p290@gmft313/gems/activesupport-3.1.3/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:240:in
`require': no such file to load -- spec/spec_helpers/model_macros.rb
(LoadError)
With ....
Dir[Rails.root.join("spec/spec_helpers/**/*.rb")].each {|f| puts "loading
... #{f}"; require f}
I found a file to load, apparently it loaded it but then the
ModelMacros#method could not be found....
loading ...
/home/anthony/Development/websites/ruby/GMFT/spec/spec_helpers/model_macros.rb
/home/anthony/Development/websites/ruby/GMFT/spec/model/event_group_spec.rb:27:in
`block in <top (required)>': undefined method
`it_should_require_attributes' for #<Class:0xd25d5fc> (NoMethodError
I also tried with :path in the third example but nada.
I've also tried all of the above running rspec 2.7.0 and rspec-rails 2.7.0.
No joy.
It must be something I'm doing wrong. But what?!!!
