I’m getting some weirdness with integration testing. The following  
works fine if I don’t have parameters, but as soon as I add parameters I  
get a hang. Not sure exactly where it is hanging.

NO HANG  
post ‘user/register’

HANG  
post ‘user/register’, :user =\> {:name =\> ‘John D.’, :email =\>  
‘removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid’, :zipcode =\> ‘12111’, :password =\> ‘hello’,  
:password\_confirmation =\> ‘hello’}

When I do a ctrl-C I get a bit of a trace… any ideas?
