Hartl Chapter 5 issue - ruby-on-rails

Question

Going through Hartl's Rails tutorial and on Chapter 5.4.2 I am not able to get a certain test to pass.
Here is the error:
1) UserPages GET /user_pages works! (now write some real specs)
Failure/Error: get user_pages_index_path
NameError:
undefined local variable or method `user_pages_index_path' for #<RSpec::Core::ExampleGroup::Nested_1::Nested_1:0x007f9106e2cce8>
# ./spec/requests/user_pages_spec.rb:7:in `block (3 levels) in <top (required)>'
Here is the test in user_pages_spec.rb:
require 'spec_helper'
describe "UserPages" do
describe "GET /user_pages" do
it "works! (now write some real specs)" do
# Run the generator again with the
# --webrat flag if you want to use webrat methods/matchers
get user_pages_index_path
response.status.should be(200)
end
end
end
Here is the routes file:
get "users/new"
root 'static_pages#home'
match '/signup', to: 'users#new', via: 'get'
match '/help', to: 'static_pages#help', via: 'get'
match '/about', to: 'static_pages#about', via: 'get'
match '/contact', to: 'static_pages#contact', via: 'get'
match 'static_pages/home', to: 'static_pages#home', via: 'get'
Any input is appreciated
Sorry about the formatting. In the very beginning of that section is a spec file: spec/requests/user_pages_spec.rb
require 'spec_helper'
describe "User pages" do
subject { page }
describe "signup page" do
before { visit signup_path }
it { should have_content('Sign up') }
it { should have_title(full_title('Sign up')) }
end
end
and I am getting the following error:
Failure/Error: get user_pages_index_path
NameError: undefined local variable or method `user_pages_index_path' for #
Here is the rake routes output:
Prefix Verb URI Pattern Controller#Action
users_new GET /users/new(.:format) users#new
root GET / static_pages#home
signup GET /signup(.:format) users#new
help GET /help(.:format) static_pages#help
about GET /about(.:format) static_pages#about
contact GET /contact(.:format) static_pages#contact
static_pages_home GET /static_pages/home(.:format) static_pages#home

Answer 1

Just remove the contents at "user_pages_spec.rb"
cause there is no such method called user_pages_index_path
so, here is what it should be
user_pages_spec.rb
require 'spec_helper'
describe "User pages" do
subject { page }
describe "signup page" do
before { visit signup_path }
it { should have_content('Sign up') }
it { should have_title(full_title('Sign up')) }
end
end
Also, At /config/routes.rb file
SampleApp::Application.routes.draw do
get "users/new"
root 'static_pages#home'
match '/signup', to: 'users#new', via: 'get'
match '/help', to: 'static_pages#help', via: 'get'
match '/about', to: 'static_pages#about', via: 'get'
match '/contact', to: 'static_pages#contact', via: 'get'
.
.
.
end

Answer 2

I was having same issue and I just commented out the "user_pages_spec.rb" file. When I did that I passed all the tests. Is this the correct answer, I don't know but as I stated it allows for the tests to pass.
