undefined method `visit' when using RSpec and Capybara in rails

Question

I can\'t get capybara working with rspec. It gives me this error:

undefined method `visit\' for #

        

Answer 1

Adding require 'rails_helper' at the top of my feature ended up fixing my problem:

require 'rails_helper'

describe "security", :type => :feature do

  it "signs users in" do
    visit new_sessions_path
    fill_in "username", :with => "user"
    fill_in "password", :with => "pass"
    click_button "Sign In"

    page.should have_content('Login Successful')
  end
end

This seems odd to me since every example I've seen for rspec and capybara didn't have that require, but oh well. Problem solved.

Original Answer (older versions of rspec)

require 'spec_helper' is used by older versions of RSpec. The better answer would be require 'rails_helper'.
