Hello,

I am fairly new to Ruby and trying to setup some acceptance tests using the 
watir-rspec gem.

Now https://github.com/watir/watir-rspec states:

   - No need to use the @browser or $browser variables when executing 
   browser methods.

However, this doesn't seem to work for me.

What I've done so far:
rails new hello_world

Then added to the gemfile:
group :test do
  gem "rspec-rails"
  gem "watir-rspec"
  gem "watir-rails"
end

Execute:
bundle install
rails generate rspec:install
watir-rspec install

This all seems to work fine so far

Now I created a file in the spec folder: /spec/acceptance/google_spec.rband 
added the watir-rspec example:

require "spec_helper"
describe "Google" do
  before { goto "http://google.com"; }

  it "has search box" do
    text_field(:name => "q").should be_present
  end

  it "allows to search" do
    text_field(:name => "q").set "watir"
    button(:id => "gbqfb").click
    results = div(:id => "ires")
    results.should be_present.within(2)
    results.lis(:class => "g").map(&:text).should be_any { |text| text =~ 
/watir/ }
    results.should be_present.during(1)
  endend

Now when I run rspec I get the following output:

Results will be saved to tmp/spec-results/index.html
FF

Failures:

  1) Google has search box
     Failure/Error: before { goto "http://google.com"; }
     NoMethodError:
       undefined method `goto' for 
#<RSpec::Core::ExampleGroup::Nested_1:0x5715a50>
     # ./spec/acceptance/google_spec.rb:6:in `block (2 levels) in <top 
(required)>'

  2) Google allows to search
     Failure/Error: before { goto "http://google.com"; }
     NoMethodError:
       undefined method `goto' for 
#<RSpec::Core::ExampleGroup::Nested_1:0x57c86d0>
     # ./spec/acceptance/google_spec.rb:6:in `block (2 levels) in <top 
(required)>'

Finished in 0.051 seconds
2 examples, 2 failures

Failed examples:

rspec ./spec/acceptance/google_spec.rb:8 # Google has search box
rspec ./spec/acceptance/google_spec.rb:12 # Google allows to search

Obviously this can be solved by adding the browser variables but it should 
be possible without.. right?
