I''m very new to RoR and am receiving the following error on rspec spec/ 1) Layouts GET /layouts works! (now write some real specs) Failure/Error: get layouts_path NameError: undefined local variable or method `layouts_path'' for #<RSpec::Core::ExampleGroup::Nested_5::Nested_1:0x007f8adc382020> # ./spec/requests/layouts_spec.rb:7:in `block (3 levels) in <top (required)>'' My layouts_spec.rb looks like the following: require ''spec_helper'' describe "Layouts" do describe "GET /layouts" do it "works!

What is the output of "rake routes" when you run it from a command line?

You would need to specify this in your routes.rb file. If you post a link to the tutorial you are using, we can help you figure out where in the tutorial it has you defining that path. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Is there a different avenue of trouble shooting for this error? The local variable in layouts_spec.rb is layouts_path and I''ve looked back through the book for the layouts_spec.rb file but have found nothing. Should I just remove this file or move it to a different location? Is this a necessary file? I removed it and the page still functions and the tests pass. I''m just curious where the file came from because I assume it was auto generated and if removing it will be a problem or cause errors later on down the line?

Are you using git (or similar) for version control of your code? If not then you should be. Then you would know when it was created. The file certainly looks like something you do not want since you have no model called Layout, and I suspect it would be a bad idea to have one. Just delete it and carry on.
