I'm using Ruby version 1.9.3 at the moment (although I get the same issue with Ruby 2.0.0). On Windows 7 64-bit. I'm following 'The Cucumber Book' and got stuck at the chapter 7.2 - "Removing Duplication with Transforms". My folder structure is as follows:
\cash_withdrawal \cash_withdrawal\Gemfile \cash_withdrawal\Gemfile.lock \cash_withdrawal\features \cash_withdrawal\features\cash-withdrawal.feature \cash_withdrawal\features\step_definitions \cash_withdrawal\features\step_definitions\cash_withdrawal_steps.rb \cash_withdrawal\features\step_definitions\lib \cash_withdrawal\features\step_definitions\lib\nice_bank.rb \cash_withdrawal\features\support \cash_withdrawal\features\support\env.rb \cash_withdrawal\features\support\transforms.rb \cash_withdrawal\features\support\world_extensions.rb In my cash_withdrawal_steps.rb file I have:
require 'CAPTURE_CASH_AMOUNT' Given /^I have deposited (#{CAPTURE_CASH_AMOUNT}) in my Account$/ do |amount| my_account.deposit(amount) my_account.balance.should eq(amount), "Expected the balance to be #{amount} but it was #{my_account.balance}" end When I run cucumber I get:
C:\Users\Nikita.Harrison\AutomatedTesting\cash_withdrawal>cucumber cannot load such file -- CAPTURE_CASH_AMOUNT (LoadError) C:/Ruby193/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.9.1/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:55:in

And if I run irb then run require "CAPTURE_CASH_AMOUNT" I get this error:
irb(main):006:0> require "CAPTURE_CASH_AMOUNT" LoadError: cannot load such file -- CAPTURE_CASH_AMOUNT from C:/Ruby193/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.9.1/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_requir e.rb:55:in

I've tried many fixes including 'require_relative' and nothing seems to solve my problem. If I remove require 'CAPTURE_CASH_AMOUNT' from the cash_withdrawal_steps.rb file and run cucumber then my 'Step Definition' doesn't show as defined:
