Answer 1

Came here with the same question, and Don's answer got me on the right path. The generators however have : instead of _ in the name for Rails 3:

> rails g rspec:controller soa/user
      create  spec/controllers/soa/user_controller_spec.rb

> rails g rspec:scaffold soa/user
      create  spec/controllers/soa/users_controller_spec.rb
      create  spec/views/soa/users/edit.html.erb_spec.rb
      create  spec/views/soa/users/index.html.erb_spec.rb
      create  spec/views/soa/users/new.html.erb_spec.rb
      create  spec/views/soa/users/show.html.erb_spec.rb
      invoke  helper
      create    spec/helpers/soa/users_helper_spec.rb
      create  spec/routing/soa/users_routing_spec.rb
      invoke  rspec
      create    spec/requests/soa/soa_users_spec.rb

Annoyingly, these are not listed when you run rails g but they are available.

Answer 2

In your config/application.rb :

config.generators do |g|
  g.test_framework :rspec
end

Answer 3

In config/application.rb, add this line of configuration code

 config.generators do |g|
       g.test_framework  :rspec, :fixture => true, :views => false
       g.integration_tool :rspec, :fixture => true, :views => true
 end

Once you've installed rspec there will be new generators available called rspec_scaffold, rspec_model and rspec_controller which work similarly to the normal rails generators except that instead of generating stub tests, they generate stub specs.
