So this is kind of baffling me as I can't quite figure out why it's happening. This only happens on my laptop (Ubuntu 11.04), and not elsewhere. I just seem to have something weird with the setup on this one computer.
I keep getting the following error when I run my specs:
be rake spec
Gives me:
NoMethodError: undefined method `belong_to' for #<RSpec::Core::ExampleGroup::Nested_4:0xb4eb2e4>

Here are the relevant lines from my spec file that generates the complaint:
describe SalesItem do
it { should belong_to(:publisher) }
it { should belong_to(:invoice) }
I'm running Rails 3.1.0. Here is ruby -v:
ruby 1.9.2p290 (2011-07-09 revision 32553) [i686-linux]
Any tips /thoughts/ideas recommendations greatly appreciated.
Try adding this in your rails_helper.rb
Shoulda::Matchers.configure do |config|
config.integrate do |with|
with.test_framework :rspec
with.library :rails
end
end
RSpec core does not have such matcher. It looks like shoulda-matchers. Just make sure that it's installed and loaded in your spec_helper
I was having a hard time with this for awhile and then changed my spec from:
describe ModelName do
it { should belong_to(:model)}
end
to:
RSpec.describe ModelName, type: :model do
it { should belong_to(:model)}
end
and it suddenly worked
