Rspec-rails: how to run checks?

Testing RSpec
1

I’m trying to run the specs of the rspec-rails master branch, but both
plain rake as well as rake spec fail. The default task fails because
there is no cucumber.yml. rake spec fails, when it requires a file that
is not part of the repo: rspec-rails/spec/spec_helper.rb refers to

require File.expand_path(“#{dir}/…/…/…/…/spec/spec_helper”)

Commenting out this line doesn’t make everything magically work, of
course. However, when I do that, I hit “uninitialized constant
ActionController”. So, I surmise that the missing spec_helper.rb among
other things sees to it that Rails is properly required.

Any hints on how to get the specs to work?

Right now the only way to run them is in the context of the rspec-dev
suite: http://github.com/dchelimsky/rspec-dev

As a social workaround, would you mind to add a note to that effect to
the rspec-rails README?
