Seems like it''s not loading up rspec-rails'' Configuration
object. In
order for that to happen implicitly, the specs need to be in any of
spec/models, spec/controllers, spec/views, spec/helpers. Is your file
in one of those?

Yeah the file is spec/controllers/user_sessions_controller.rb

@Mischa: The pointer you gave talks about rails edge. Right now I am on
rails 2.1

FWIW, I was getting this error yesterday. I completely uninstalled rspec and
rspec-rails (including David''s code from GitHub) and reinstalled, and
it
"went away."

I have both the rspec 1.1.11 and rspec-rails 1.1.11 as gems. I had them
plugged in my application too. When I removed them from my application the
problem was solved. The version of both the gems and plugins are same.

Why did this happen?

I haven''t seen the problem of use_transactional_fixtures before, but
there were some problems with installing rspec/rspec-rails as gems w/
1.1.11.

This will be fixed in the 1.1.12 release coming shortly.

Cheers,
David

This happens when you generate tests pre-Rails 2.3 then upgrade to Rails 
2.3.

go to test/test_helper.rb and change:
class Test::Unit::testCase

to:
class ActiveSupport::TestCase
