The second series of errors were all related to #first_render being removed
from ActionView::Base.
i noticed a ticket was opened in lighthouse about this so I responded there:
http://engines.lighthouseapp.com/projects/10178-engines-plugin/tickets/41-view-tests-shouldnt-rely-on-first_render#ticket-41-2

 however, I thought I would continue this conversation here as well.

Hi, I tried globally changing the <%= self.first_render %> to <%=
self.instance_variable_get(:@_first_render) %>

this seems to work pushing the errors to failures:

<"namespace/app_and_plugin/a_view (from app)"> expected but was
<"namespace/app_and_plugin/a_view.html.erb (from app)">

etc.

This seems acceptable if the test condition was just changed from
assert_response_body 'alpha_plugin/a_view' to assert_response_body
'alpha_plugin/a_view.html.erb'

would that still satisfy the test? are the file extensions a problem?
