rspec users - Sep 2008 - Story steps all became "PENDING" in the update from RSpec 1.1.3 to 1.1.4

Hi all,

I had some stories which worked fine under RSpec 1.1.3 which are  
broken under 1.1.4 (suddenly all steps are marked as PENDING, and one  
of the steps raises a NoMethodError due to an unexpected nil object in  
the store_and_call method of rspec/lib/spec/story/world.rb).

Here is the output under 1.1.3:

   http://pastie.org/269529

And the output under 1.1.4:

   http://pastie.org/269531

The actual story file is:

   http://pastie.org/269534

Any suggestions for how I could troubleshoot this further? I looked at  
the 1.1.4 changelog but I can''t see anything in there which would  
explain this change...

Cheers,
Wincent

To just get it to work, change this:

  }, :type => RailsStory, :steps => steps do

to this:

  }, :type => RailsStory, :steps_for => steps do

Take a look at http://pastie.org/269645 for a few more changes.

Cheers,
David

Just in case anyone is curious to see the differences between the  
1.1.3 and the 1.1.4 version of the story, here they are:

http://pastie.org/270742

As David said, changing ":steps" to ":steps_for" is enough
to get
everything working again. The other stuff mostly falls under the  
category of style changes.
