Can't get rcov to work. 0 assertions returned

Hi folks. First post on these forums, after finally giving up on
railsforum.com. I recently installed the relevance fork of rcov and am
having no luck at all.

sudo gem install relevance-rcov

Easy enough. Everything seems to have worked. I can type rcov on the
command line and see the help file. But when I run the following
command:

rcov test/*.rb

I get back 0 tests, 0 assertions, 0 failures, 0 errors. Even though I
have plenty of tests sitting right in there. If I try running rcov
against a specific file, such as:

rcov test/unit/user_test.rb

…I get the following error.

No file to analyze was found. All the files loaded by rcov matched one
of the
following expressions, and were thus ignored:
[/\A\/usr\/local\/lib/,
 /\btc_[^.]*.rb/,
 /_test\.rb\z/,
 /\btest\//,
 /\bvendor\//,
 /\A\/usr\/local\/lib\/ruby\/gems\/1\.8\/gems\/relevance\-rcov\-0\.8\.6\/lib\/rcov\/formatters\/base_formatter\.rb\z/]

You can solve this by doing one or more of the following:
* rename the files not to be ignored so they don't match the above
regexps
* use --include-file to give a list of patterns for files not to be
ignored
* use --exclude-only to give the new list of regexps to match against
* structure your code as follows:
      test/test_*.rb  for the test cases
      lib/**/*.rb     for the target source code whose coverage you want
  making sure that the test/test_*.rb files are loading from lib/, e.g.
by
  using the -Ilib command-line argument, adding
    $:.unshift File.join(File.dirname(__FILE__), "..", "lib")
  to test/test_*.rb, or running rcov via a Rakefile (read the RDoc
  documentation or README.rake in the source distribution).

Any ideas? Cheers.
