rspec users - Jul 2011 - How can I add another 'requests'-like folder?

I love conventions. But I am trying to write tests for an API,which
lives in ... api. I need to be making http requests, so all my tests
work when put in spec/requests. How can I make that spec/api?
(Obviously renaming requests into api doesn''t bring in the code that
lets me do GETs).

Take a look at
https://github.com/rspec/rspec-rails/blob/master/lib/rspec/rails/example.rb.

You can do something similar in spec_helper.rb:

RSpec::configure do |c|
  c.include RSpec::Rails::RequestExampleGroup, :example_group => {
    :file_path => /spec\/api//
  }
end

Add this to your spec_helper.rb:

c.include RSpec::Rails::RequestExampleGroup, :type => :request,
:example_group => {
    :file_path => /spec\/api/
  }
