If you are seeing errors like

ActionController::RoutingError: No route matches

Where it should be working, you may be using a rails gem or engine that does something like Spree does where it prepends routes, you may need to do something else to view routes in console.

In spree's case, this is in the routes file

Spree::Core::Engine.routes.prepend do
  ...
end

And to work like @mike-blythe suggests, you would then do this before generate or recognize_path.

r = Spree::Core::Engine.routes
