That's the idea. > doesn't respect the --colour option in spec.opts That's been a bug since 0.6 or 0.7 when I started with rspec. I guess not enough people have used the spec server for it to be already patched. I'll take a look at fixing it this weekend. > and causes failures that don't happen when running just plain > autotest. > All of them seem to be related to methods being run more times than > they are supposed to.

You'll also see this sort of thing if you just call load directly in your specs. I've never dug deeper into how all of the rails magic happens regarding loading and constants (and the method generation with the association macros (has_* belongs_to), so if you have any insight, I'd be happy to hear it.
