Arrays in query parameters not translated to have square brackets in the url

[SushmaShyam]

When setting a provider state like:

        some_service.given('some scenario')
          .upon_receiving('a request for questions')
          .with(method: :get, path: '/questions', query: { question_ids: [1,2] })

and sending in query params hash is like this:

query_params_hash = { question_ids: [1,2] }

I encounter the following error:

Missing requests:
                GET /questions?question_ids=1&question_ids=2

            Unexpected requests:
                GET /questions?question_ids[]=1&question_ids[]=2

The square brackets are missing from the expected request

I'm having trouble replicating it. I get this error:

     ]
   }
 }

@SushmaShyam, can you check if your HTTP client is actually serialising your request with square brackets?
