David, That indeed was the problem. The gist from the original post shows the test run with --backtrace and it does show rspec-rails in vendor/ plugins (I didn't see a version number tho). I did the following: rm -fr vendor/plugin/rspec-rails rm -fr vendor/plugin/rsecp sudo gem install rspec rspec-rails After which the spec no longer produces a NoMethodError and in fact passes. Thanks for taking the time to help me understand this, I was really stuck.
