How to get rspec-2 to give the full trace associated with a test failure?

Question

Right now if I run my test suite using rake spec I get an error:

1) SegmentsController GET \'index\' should work
   Failure/Error: get \'index\'
   u         


        

Answer 1

One more option when all else fails is to just add a rescue block and print out the stack try or add a binding pry statement there and use show-stack.

rescue Exception => e
  puts ""
  puts e.backtrace
  puts ""
