Hi guys. I wrote rspec spec And I had:

DEPRECATION WARNING: `named_routes.helpers` is deprecated, please use `route_defined?(route_name)` to see if a named route was defined. (called from block in it_requires_authentication at /Users/vorob/Dropbox/ruby/upnetwork/spec/support/controllers/errors_helper.rb:7)

See my _/Users/vorob/Dropbox/ruby/upnetwork/spec/support/controllers/errors_helper.rb_

module Controllers
  module ErrorsHelper
    def it_requires_authentication(&block)
      it 'requires authentication' do
        instance_exec(&block)

        expect(response).not_to be_successful
        expect(flash[:alert]).to eq(I18n.t('devise.failure.unauthenticated'))
      end
    end

    def it_raises_authorization_error(in_case = nil, &block)
      it "raises authorization error #{in_case}" do
        instance_exec(&block)

        expect(response).not_to be_successful
        expect(flash[:alert]).to eq(I18n.t('errors.not_authorized'))
      end
    end
  end
end

I use

  gem 'rspec-rails', '~> 3.0'

Could you please add your exact RSpec, Rails, and Ruby versions?

[cupakromer]

Looks related to #1142. Rails 4.2 support starts with rspec-rails 3.1, please make sure you're using this setup.

[Vorob-Astronaut]

I changed version from _3.0_ to _3.1_ and it works fine.

gem 'rspec-rails', '~> 3.1'

Tnx)

@cupakromer do you think it would be an idea to issue a warning when using Rails 4.2 on 3.0?

[cupakromer]

@JonRowe i would like to do something. We could put the warning in, we also could update the gemspec too. I'm not sure what's best or better long term.

[arthurnn]

is this on rspec 2 too?

[cupakromer]

@arthurnn it is not, we are not supporting Rails 4.2 on RSpec 2. If you are looking for help upgrading to RSpec 3 check out the main upgrade guide the rails specific changes and the amazing tool transpec which automates a huge portion of the process.

[arthurnn]

@cupakromer thanks. I will do that.
