Error running cucumber tests - no such file to load - ruby-on-rails

I have a rails app with Cucumber 1.0.0 and cucumber-rails 1.0.2. These tests ran fine last night. Today I just altered some step definitions and tried to run the tests and got the error below. I haven't changed anything in the cucumber support files. Any ideas?

# Typical scenarios where you want to do this is when you test your error pages.
# There are two ways to allow Rails to rescue exceptions:
#
# 1) Tag your scenario (or feature) with #allow-rescue

I am following this guide on building a restful json api https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/build-a-restful-json-api-with-rails-5-part-one#project-setup
I have followed every single step up until the models area ( there are 5 areas, Prerequisites, Project Setup,Models,Controllers,Conclusion) where the testing begins ...

Upgrading shoulda-matchers and rspec-rails to the latest versions worked for me
I tried that tutorial as well. I am working with Ruby 2.7.2 and Rails 6.1.3, I need to update the gem 'rspec-rails', '~> 4.0' in order to fix that issue.
Okay, so the problem seemed to be the version of ruby and rails.
For some reason ruby 2.7.2 and Rails 6.0.3.4 worked for my problem.
Of course GemFile needs to be changed
In the gem file if rspec's version is < 4 try to replace it with the latest version or with the below line.
gem 'rspec-rails', '~> 4.0'
It worked for me
I solved, in my case function like was say here updating gem rspec-rails like below:
gem 'rspec-rails', ~>4.0 gem 'shoulda-matchers', '~> 5.0'
For rails 6.1.4.1 is fine

ConnectionNotEstablished in Mongoid and Rspec in Rails 5.1

I'm using Rails (5.1.0), Mongoid(6.1.0) and Rspec(3.6.0). I have removed active record from my app. Everything is working perfectly apart from tests. When I'm running rspec i get error:
Failure/Error: raise ConnectionNotEstablished, "No connection pool with '#{spec_name}' found." unless pool
ActiveRecord::ConnectionNotEstablished:

Problem solved - I had bad carrier_wave config which was loading active record

Try to run:
rails generate rspec:install //which you must have already run
bundle install
And also check out this question and it's answers
According to the above, you need to add spork-rails to your Gemfile.
All the above-shared code snippets all look good.

Rails 4, RSpec Application has been already initialized

However, when I run test on single *.rb files it works without any errors. I use guard and have tried to run rspec in single mode but received the same error.

I ran into this problem while upgrading a Rails 4.2 and Ruby 2.2 app to Rails 4.2 and Rails 2.6. Apparently, ActionController::TestResponse is reused and therefore initialized multiple times. You can add a workaround reading this thread, or simply create spec/support/action_controller_workaround.rb:
if RUBY_VERSION>='2.6.0'
if Rails.version < '5'
class ActionController::TestResponse < ActionDispatch::TestResponse
def recycle!
# hack to avoid MonitorMixin double-initialize error:
#mon_mutex_owner_object_id = nil
#mon_mutex = nil
initialize
end
end
else
puts "Monkeypatch for ActionController::TestResponse no longer needed"
end
end
Try setting your spec_helper to this:
# This file is copied to spec/ when you run 'rails generate rspec:install'
ENV["RAILS_ENV"] ||= 'test'
require File.expand_path("../../config/environment", __FILE__)
require 'rspec/rails'
require 'rspec/autorun'
require 'capybara/rspec' # NOTE: I DON'T have this but you do...
Dir[Rails.root.join("spec/support/**/*.rb")].each {|f| require f}
RSpec.configure do |config|
config.fixture_path = "#{::Rails.root}/spec/fixtures"
config.use_transactional_fixtures = true
config.infer_base_class_for_anonymous_controllers = false
end
I don't know if you've already got the solution, but here I go anyway:
I'm facing the same problem since yesterday. I've found that running a
single spec by time or removing the 'require "spec_helper" from all specs but one,
it would work.
And a few minutes ago, I've found that the problem was the ruby version.
If you upgrade your ruby-2.0.0-p0 to ruby-2.0.0-p247, then the problem goes away!
I hope I've been helpful.

Getting spork to work with Ruby 1.9.2/3 + Rails 3.1 + Rspec?

There's quite a few solid tutorials out there, and I haven't had too much trouble getting this working in the past. But, after hours of trying, I must be missing something.
I've completed the standard installation instructions, and started up the spork server:
Using RSpec
Preloading Rails environment
Loading Spork.prefork block...
Spork is ready and listening on 8989!
Looking good.
Then, I hop over to a new tab and run my specs:
$ rspec spec
This command returns nothing after running for only a split second. So I jump back to the spork server to see what happened and get:
Using RSpec
Preloading Rails environment
Loading Spork.prefork block...
Spork is ready and listening on 8989!
Running tests with args ["--color", "spec"]...

Done.
For some reason, drb is failing to connect? I've googled like crazy, but there just doesn't seem to be anything helpful out there.
Some possible clues
The port (in this case 56736) changes every time I attempt to run the suite
I get the same result on both ruby 1.9.2 and ruby 1.9.3
I'm using a mac (snow leopard) and firewalls are disabled
I've tried it on a totally different mac (also snow leopard) with the same result.
I'm using the latest version of cucumber, rspec, and spork.
I also setup cucumber spork and it failed the same way.
As you can see, I've been banging away at it for a while. My project uses a lot of gems and not having spork makes testing really, really terrible. Please help...
UPDATE
Here's my spec_helper:
require 'spork'
Spork.prefork do
ENV["RAILS_ENV"] ||= 'test'
require File.expand_path("../../config/environment", __FILE__)
require 'rspec/rails'
require "email_spec"
require 'webmock/rspec'
require 'vcr'
require 'database_cleaner'
include Devise::TestHelpers
include EmailSpec::Helpers
include EmailSpec::Matchers
# Stub all updates to search indexes
class Profile
def update_tank_indexes ; end
def delete_tank_indexes ; end
end
class Journal
def update_tank_indexes ; end
end
# Apparently rspec doesn't understand <tt>main_app</tt> so stub it out.
def main_app ; self ; end
# 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
# 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
config.extend VCR::RSpec::Macros
# Always clean the database after running describe/context blocks to ensure a
# consistent state. This is especially important when using the <tt>rspec-set</tt>
# method. This method creates setup object once -- and only once -- proir to
# running an entire describe/context block. In this way, it's similar to using
# <tt>before(:all)</tt> except that <tt>set</tt> is better because:
#
# * It automatically reloads the object before each example, making it much
# safer than before(:all) which can cause bugs if you're not careful.
# * It's lazily evaluated.

DatabaseCleaner.strategy = :truncation
config.before(:all) do
DatabaseCleaner.clean
end
config.after(:suite) do
DatabaseCleaner.clean
end
end
end
Spork.each_run do
# This code will be run each time you run your specs.
end
I opened a ticket for this issue, but nothing has come of it in the last 3.5 months: https://github.com/sporkrb/spork/issues/133
Update: I found the solution, and reported everything to that ticket. tl;dr: change your Gemfile entry for 'always_validate_ssl_certifitcates' to include :require => false.
Can you roll back to spork 0.8.5 and see if it works? I've just verified that working.
