rspec users - Jul 2010 - Rspec2 / Rails3 / test_unit

I generate a new rails3 app using "rails new my_app -T".

Then i run "cd my_app ; rails generate", and I don''t see any
test_unit
options. (as expected).

Then I put "gem ''rspec-rails''" into my Gemfile, and
re-run "rails
generate".

Now I see options for test_unit.
TestUnit:
  test_unit:controller
  test_unit:helper
  test_unit:integration
  ...

Why does it show options for test_unit?  Is this expected?

Tx, Andy

This is not anything that RSpec is doing in any intentional way. rspec-rails
does require ''test/unit/assertions'' and
''test/unit/assertionfailederror'', but not
''test/unit'' (top level).

I''d guess it''s something to do with rspec-rails generators
telling rails to use them for testing, so it also shows you the other testing
possibilities. But that''s just a guess.
