Capybara methods are undefined

Question

I cannot get capybara to work. I am using capybara 2.0.0

I get this error

Failure/Error: visit \"/users/sign_in\"
     NoMethodError:
       undefine         


        

Answer 1

In my case, I got this error because I forgot to putrequire "spec_helper" at the top of my new spec file.

I've done it enough times that I'm adding an answer to an already answered question in hopes that it helps some other knucklehead (or most likely me searching this again in the future).
