"wrong constant name" Error when using Turnip with Spork - ruby-on-rails

My Turnip test is working normally, but does not work when using spork.
I debugged with pry and I found that a missing User(class constant) causes the error.
What should I do to fix?
# working (good)
bundle exec rspec spec/acceptance/features/*
# not work (bad)
bundle exec rspec spec/acceptance/features/* --drb
Here is the error when I run with the --drb option.
Failure/Error: Give a user logged in:
NameError:
wrong constant name #<Module:0x007fd40a19c680>
# spec/acceptance/steps/user_steps.rb:8:in `block (2 levels) in <module:UserSteps>'

I'm not sure why this problem occurs, but you can prevent it from happening. If you're wrapping your steps in modules, you don't need to pass the true wrap parameter to load. Change:
Dir.glob("spec/**/*steps.rb") { |f| load f, true }
to:
Dir.glob("spec/**/*steps.rb") { |f| load f }
This prevents this error for me.

Why rspec doesn't run single spec?

When I trying to run single test, like
bundle exec rspec spec/some_path/some_spec.rb
It runs all specs anyway, like it would be if I run bundle exec rspec spec/
Even when it print out failed specs and I only copy failed examples and put it again, the Rspec will run all existed specs. I haven't found any information about such behaviour in rspec documentation. Thank you very much if you know, what is wrong with my code! (or configuration, I suppose)

Rails 5.1: Rspec can't see Capybara features

I have some feature specs in my project that look roughly like this:
# specs/features/canvas_integration.rb
require 'spec_helper'
feature 'Routes to default page' do
let!(:mode) { create(:mode) }
scenario 'as anyone' do
visit root_path
expect(page).to have_content('Your home')
end
end
But running the specs results in nothing:
rspec spec/features
No examples found.

Why can't Rspec find my features?
Your files need to end in _spec.rb in order for RSpec to load them when specifying a directory. So rename to specs/features/canvas_integration_spec.rb
Also note that in Rails 5.1 database cleaner is probably not necessary (if you're using one of the usual databases) - so you should be able to remove/comment out that and re-enable transactional testing. Additionally use_transactional_examples is an alias of use_transactional_fixtures so specifying both doesn't make sense.
I think your test spec filename should be specs/features/canvas_integration_spec.rb instead of specs/features/canvas_integration.rb
Why?
The files read by the rspec-rails gem are those that end in _spec.rb

postgresql_adapter async_exec error on rails rspec test using Capybara + FactoryGirl

I'm getting this strange error when I try to run my test in rails:

Anyone has any idea why this is happening? The application in the browser seems to be working fine.
Sounds like the schema for you test db is out of sync, you either need to run migrations on it or just reset/recreate it.
Ok I figured it out following the answer here: FactoryGirl screws up rake db:migrate process
So the problem was coming from factorygirl. I updated my Gemfile to look like this:
gem "factory_girl_rails", :require => false
And then also add this:
require 'factory_girl_rails'
to my spec_helper.rb file and that fixed all the issues both localy and on circleci :)

SQLite exception with RSpec, Spork and Database Cleaner

Works great for about 5 runs, but then all tests fail with:
ArgumentError: prepare called on a closed database: SELECT name
FROM sqlite_master
WHERE type = 'table' AND NOT name = 'sqlite_sequence'
Doesn't happen without Spork, and works fine if I restart Spork. Doesn't happen after a certain number of runs, but changes each time.
Any ideas what could cause this?
EDIT:
It only happens when changing the controller code.
spec_helper.rb:
require 'spork'
require 'simplecov'
SimpleCov.start
Spork.prefork do
ENV['RAILS_ENV'] ||= 'test'
require File.expand_path('../../config/environment', __FILE__)
require 'rspec/rails'
end
Spork.each_run do # This code will be run each time you run your specs.
require 'capybara/rspec'
require 'capybara/rails'
# Requires supporting ruby files with custom matchers and macros, etc,
# in spec/support/ and its subdirectories.
Dir[Rails.root.join('spec/support/**/*.rb')].each {|f| require f}
RSpec.configure do |config|
config.mock_with :rspec
# Remove this line if you're not using ActiveRecord or ActiveRecord fixtures
config.fixture_path = "#{::Rails.root}/spec/fixtures"
# If you're not using ActiveRecord, or you'd prefer not to run each of your
# examples within a transaction, remove the following line or assign false
# instead of true.
config.use_transactional_fixtures = true
# If true, the base class of anonymous controllers will be inferred
# automatically. This will be the default behavior in future versions of
# rspec-rails.
config.infer_base_class_for_anonymous_controllers = false
config.include RequestHelpers, :type => :request
config.before :suite do
DatabaseCleaner.strategy = :truncation
DatabaseCleaner.clean_with :truncation
end
config.before :each do
DatabaseCleaner.start
end
config.after :each do
DatabaseCleaner.clean
end
config.include(MailerHelpers)
config.before(:each) { reset_email }
end
end
Try removing this line:
config.use_transactional_fixtures = true
Seems to have worked for me. I was guided by the error message, as it was transaction related, but not exactly sure what the deal is. Seems to have something to do with spork's threads and sqlite3
I had this error quite a bit and was able to fix it by updating to the latest version of sqlite3.
bundle update sqlite3

Having Issues with cache_classes / Spork after changing to Capybara-Webkit from Selenium

For a while I was using Selenium / Spork / Rspec, with cache_classes on false, and everything seemed to be working.
In switching over to webkit, I've started to get errors related to cache_classes (e.g. Expected User, got User), so I've been fighting with it to try to get cache_classes set to true.
However no matter what I do, I end up with the following error:
Capybara::Driver::Webkit::WebkitInvalidResponseError:
Unable to load URL: http://127.0.0.1:56398/login
I have tried all kinds of things... including:
ActiveSupport::Dependencies.clear in both the prefork and each _run blocks
The code here: http://my.rails-royce.org/2012/01/14/reloading-models-in-rails-3-1-when-usign-spork-and-cache_classes-true/
Starting to wonder if I should just live with cache_classes = false, and figure out how to avoid the Factory girl errors. Any help would be appreciated. My spork file is as follows:

You are having issues due to threading problems with Capybara-webkit and the test suite.
Jose Valim explains it much more clearly in a recent blog post.
If you follow his recommendations then you should be able to turn on transactional fixtures, remove database cleaner altogether and no longer have issues with your data during tests while using capybara-webkit. You'll get a nice boost in testing performance as well.
The trick though is to make sure that Jose's suggestion is in the Spork.each_run block or it will not work. For clarity here are the relevant parts of my spec_helper.rb.
require 'spork'
Spork.prefork do
ENV["RAILS_ENV"] ||= 'test'
require File.expand_path("../../config/environment", __FILE__)
require 'rspec/rails'
require 'capybara/rspec'
Dir[Rails.root.join("spec/support/**/*.rb")].each {|f| require f}
RSpec.configure do |config|
config.mock_with :rspec
config.fixture_path = "#{::Rails.root}/spec/fixtures"
config.use_transactional_fixtures = true
Capybara.default_driver = :rack_test
Capybara.default_selector = :css
Capybara.javascript_driver = :webkit
end
end
Spork.each_run do
if Spork.using_spork?
ActiveRecord::Base.instantiate_observers
end
require 'factory_girl_rails'
# Forces all threads to share the same connection, works on Capybara because it starts the web server in a thread.
class ActiveRecord::Base
mattr_accessor :shared_connection
##shared_connection = nil
def self.connection
##shared_connection || retrieve_connection
end
end
ActiveRecord::Base.shared_connection = ActiveRecord::Base.connection
end
A few other small suggestions:
If you are using the latest version of factory_girl_rails then you
should be using require factory_girl_rails in the Spork.each_run
block and require factory_girl should be removed from the prefork
The latest factory_girl_rails also no longer requires ActiveSupport::Dependencies.clear at all, although some people are still having issues without it so you should test removing it.
I'm still not sure about the need for ActiveRecord::Base.instantiate_observers but in any case you would only need it if you are using observers and I understand that it should be in the each_run block.
Try all that and see if it works for you.
