Forum: RSpec Rspec + Shoulda + FactoryGirl = undefined method `reflect_on_association'

I have Rspec + Shoulda + FactoryGirl and I am receiving the following
error when attempting to call Shoulda's have_many or belong_to
methods. All Shoulda methods used in the "validations" group work
fine:

Thanks in advance

spec/spec_helper.rb
==================================================================

    require 'shoulda'

spec/models/project_spec.rb
==================================================================

    require File.dirname(__FILE__) + '/../spec_helper'

    describe "A Project" do
      describe "associations" do

        subject { Factory(:project) }

        it { should have_many(:tasks) }
        it { should belong_to(:project_status) }
      end

      describe "validations" do
        subject { Factory(:project) }

        it { should validate_presence_of(:name) }

        it { should validate_uniqueness_of(:name).case_insensitive }

        it { should allow_mass_assignment_of(:name) }
      end
    end

What's active_matchers? I don't think that's part of rspec, shoulda,
or factory_girl.

Thank you so much. I have been staring at this for way too long and
missed the obvious. I had a redundant active_matchers plugin that was
conflicting with shoulda.

Cheers,
