It might be something obvious, in which case I apologize. I have rspec 2.12.2. Thanks!</p> <p>Update: I realized in rspec-expectations 2.12, start_with and include are built-in matchers, so I don't need to (indeed I can't) prefix them with <code>be_</code> anymore. That solves 2 of the 3 failures above. But I still get a failure with <code>should_not be_empty</code>, which according to the docs <a href="https://www.relishapp.com/rspec/rspec-expectations/v/2-12/docs/built-in-matchers/predicate-matchers!" rel="nofollow">should still work</a>.</p>
