Ok, the problem apparently was with the tests being in the 
/spec/acceptancefolder. The Rspec configuration isn't loaded for custom folders 
by default..

Basically I had to change all the config.include lines in spec_helper.rbfrom:
config.include Watir::RSpec::Helper, :type => :request
to
config.include Watir::RSpec::Helper, :type => :acceptance 

and in google_spec.rb change:
describe "Google" do
to
describe "Google", :type => :acceptance do
