If you use rspec & rspec-rails > 3.3.0 Fixture Error

[nacengineer]

There is an error with rspec-cells and rspec 3.3.0. I would bet it has something to do with the fixture support added in 3.3.0. Commit #1372

The problem resolves on rollback to rspec/rspec-rails 3.2 branch

I'd appreciate any help here from you. I don't use Rspec and have no idea what rspec-rails added.

[nacengineer]

Ok I'll take a look at it Monday when I'm back at my machine. I have a feeling its just an assumption that ActiveRecord is present vs ActiveModel

[nacengineer]

yeah that (rspec/rspec-rails#1028 ) sounds like its the issue. gotta love that they punted on what should have been, and is marked at one point in that thread, as a blocking bug.
