    text
    copied!<p>I have a very simple Rails 4 application and would like to write some example tests using Factory Girl. The app works fine with some simple rspec tests (that all pass), but when I add "factory_girl_rails" to the gemfile, 'rake db:migrate' gives me the following error:</p> <pre><code>MacBook-Pro-2:project-folder me$ rake db:migrate /Users/me/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p247/gems/activesupport-4.0.0/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:222:in `load': cannot load such file -- /Users/me/Code/project-folder/db:migrate (LoadError) from /Users/me/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p247/gems/activesupport-4.0.0/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:222:in `block in load' from /Users/me/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p247/gems/activesupport-4.0.0/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:213:in `load_dependency' from /Users/me/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p247/gems/activesupport-4.0.0/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:222:in `load' from /Users/me/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p247/gems/rspec-core-2.13.1/lib/rspec/core/configuration.rb:819:in `block in load_spec_files' from /Users/me/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p247/gems/rspec-core-2.13.1/lib/rspec/core/configuration.rb:819:in `each' from /Users/me/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p247/gems/rspec-core-2.13.1/lib/rspec/core/configuration.rb:819:in `load_spec_files' from /Users/me/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p247/gems/rspec-core-2.13.1/lib/rspec/core/command_line.rb:22:in `run' from /Users/me/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p247/gems/rspec-core-2.13.1/lib/rspec/core/runner.rb:80:in `run' from /Users/me/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p247/gems/rspec-core-2.13.1/lib/rspec/core/runner.rb:17:in `block in autorun' </code></pre> <p>Here is my spec_helper.rb (with comments removed for brevity):</p> <pre><code># This file is copied to spec/ when you run 'rails generate rspec:install' ENV["RAILS_ENV"] ||= 'test' require File.expand_path("../../config/environment", __FILE__) require 'rspec/rails' require 'rspec/autorun' require 'capybara/rspec' require 'factory_girl_rails' Dir[Rails.root.join("spec/support/**/*.rb")].each { |f| require f } ActiveRecord::Migration.check_pending! if defined?(ActiveRecord::Migration) RSpec.configure do |config| config.use_transactional_fixtures = true config.infer_base_class_for_anonymous_controllers = false config.order = "random" config.formatter = :documentation config.include Capybara::DSL config.include FactoryGirl::Syntax::Methods end </code></pre> <p>Also, the gemfile itself:</p> <pre><code>source 'https://rubygems.org' # Bundle edge Rails instead: gem 'rails', github: 'rails/rails' gem 'rails', '4.0.0' # Use sqlite3 as the database for Active Record gem 'sqlite3' # Use SCSS for stylesheets gem 'sass-rails', '~&gt; 4.0.0' # Use Uglifier as compressor for JavaScript assets gem 'uglifier', '&gt;= 1.3.0' # Use CoffeeScript for .js.coffee assets and views gem 'coffee-rails', '~&gt; 4.0.0' # See https://github.com/sstephenson/execjs#readme for more supported runtimes # gem 'therubyracer', platforms: :ruby # Use jquery as the JavaScript library gem 'jquery-rails' # Turbolinks makes following links in your web application faster.

What am I missing?</p>
