Can anyone (David?) shed some light on what exactly this warning is
complaining about? I started seeing it when I upgraded to Rails
2.1 RC1 and the latest RSpec from git.
I'm getting it in some helper specs that I'm writing. And yes, I
am including a module there, to reuse some utility methods I
originally wrote for my controller tests (I'm switching to specs as
fast as I can, but I don't have time to re-jigger all my tests over
to specs yet).
Helper example groups (in git) now have a helper object that you can
(and should) use. So instead of this:
describe SomeHelper do
it "should be helpful" do
some_helpful_method.should == "this result"
end
end
You do this:
describe SomeHelper do
it "should be helpful" do
helper.some_helpful_method.should == "this result"
end
end
That will make the warning go away.
The reason we did this is that somebody had a describe method in a
helper and it created a conflict :) We realized then that including
the module implicitly was asking for trouble.
HTH,
David

Thanks, David. That makes a lot more sense.
