I'm currently in a simliar situation as you.
I have an application that doesn't use the default routing.
When I try to write my stories.
ex.
And "user logged in successfully" do
post "/session/create", :login => "Jon", :password => "your_momma"
response.should redirect_to(home_path)
end
The post fails unless I include this back into my routes file
map.connect ':controller/:action/:id.:format'
> map.connect ':controller/:action/:id'
and even then when I add them back in they'll conflict with my other routes
and I have to comment out all my other routes.
But then it will pass.
