In Ruby, if you have a class Foo::Bar definition, it will fail with an
error like the one you received if Foo has not already been defined. That’s
simply how Ruby works and has nothing to do with RSpec. The solution is to
change your class definition to:
module Backup
class Status
# ...
endend
(Note: that could be class Backup if that’s what you intend it to be.)
Alternately, if you want to keep the class Backup::Status form, you’ll have
to require another file that does define the bare Backup class or module.
Typically this require would go at the top of your lib/backup/status.rb
file.
