I'm trying to create a Rails Engine for Rails 3 and I'm having a
similar problem.  To test a Rails Engine plugin, you have to embed a
full Rails application inside of the plugin's test folder.  There are
a couple of old tricks for loading the plugin into the embedded Rails
app, for testing: 
http://www.justinball.com/2009/06/16/testing-rails-engine-gems/
Those tricks don't work any more, and it would really help me to be
able to load the plugin using the config.plugin_paths setting.

Any other ideas for how to go about testing a Rails Engine plugin
under Rails 3 would be much appreciated.
