Rspec - undefined method 'let'

capybara, rspec, ruby, ruby-on-rails

Solution

describe "Birds" do
  let(:bird) { FactoryGirl.create(:bird) }

you should never have a `let` block inside of a `it` block. It should be called from within a `describe`

Problem

This is my rspec file: ``` require 'spec_helper' describe "Birds" do before { visit birds_path } it "should have the right title" do expect(page).to have_content("Approved Birds") end it "should contain the bird's name, genus, species" do let(:bird) { FactoryGirl.create(:bird) } expect(page).to have_content("#{bird.name}") expect(page).to have_content("#{bird.genus}") expect(page).to have_content("#{bird.species}") end end ``` When I run it, I get the following error: ``` Failure/Error: let(:bird) { FactoryGirl.create(:bird) } NoMethodError: undefined method `let' for #<RSpec::Core::ExampleGroup::Nested_1:0xad87f84> ``` My Gemfile has both 'rspec-rails' and 'capybara' gems. Anyone have any idea on how to fix this? Thanks
