This variant worked on my side:
../spec/requests$ vim orders_spec.rb
describe "Orders" do
...
describe "GET /order/id" do
it "routes to a show order" do
get order_path(:id => "abc123")
response.status.should be(200)
end
end
Passes when that order is in the test db and fails with
ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound when I change
the id to a non-present value, so that seems correct.
I have the record in the test db at the time of executing
this test.
But I keep getting a RoutingError from Rspec even though it renders ok

Maybe just try to log the result of
user_path(:id => '1')
user_path(:id => 1)
in your controller, to see what it gives there?
In the controller under test I added:
Rails.logger.debug order_path(:id => 'adsfadf1')
and this yields in the log:
/orders/adsfadf1
Do the standard request tests that are built by rspec-rails
in the spec/requests/ directory upon `rails g scaffold` function
correctly?
HTH,
