email-spec destroys my rake cucumber:all

Question

At the beginning this worked fine:

$ rake cucumber:all

---

But then

$ script/plugin install git://github.com/bmabey/email-spec.git
remote: Counting objects: 162, done.
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (130/130), done.
remote: Total 162 (delta 18), reused 79 (delta 13)
Receiving objects: 100% (162/162), 127.65 KiB | 15 KiB/s, done.
Resolving deltas: 100% (18/18), done.
From git://github.com/bmabey/email-spec
 * branch            HEAD       -> FETCH_HEAD

And

$ script/generate email_spec
      exists  features/step_definitions
      create  features/step_definitions/email_steps.rb

And I add 'require 'email_spec/cucumber' in

/feature/support/env.rb

so it looks somethinng like:

 require File.expand_path(File.dirname(__FILE__) + '/../../config/environment')
 require 'cucumber/rails/world'
 require 'cucumber/formatter/unicode' # Comment out this line if you don't want Cucumber  Unicode support
 require 'email_spec/cucumber'

and now:

rake cucumber:all

gives me this error:

WHY?

but the command:

$ cucumber

still works

Any idea?

PS cucumber (0.4.4)

Answer 1

$ cucumber

and

$ rake cucumber

or

$ rake cucumber:all

are two different commands. The rake commands expect a cucumber.yml file to tell it what options to pass to the cucumber executable. In a rails app, the default location is config/cucumber.yml

An example cucumber.yml file would be:

default: --format progress features

Answer 2

Create a cucumber.yml file in your project root folder and try again.

Answer 3

Also you should create a new initializer under features, (I use email_spec.rb) since cucumber will overwrite env.rb when you upgrade.

features/support/email_spec.rb

require 'email_spec/cucumber'
