Hi David, You were spot on. The generated authenticated_system_spec included AuthenticatedSystem. If I include AuthenticatedSystem into the SessionsController spec, then the specs all pass. This is a problem with the standard specs that resful_authentication builds for you - so I'll looking at getting those fixed..
I'm kind of curios that the specs are testing these protected methods - I would have expected that's generally not a done thing as they're not a public part of the API? I guess there's 3 options as to how to patch: 1) include AuthenticatedSystem, or 2) change the specs to use .send, or 3) remove the specs that are calling protected methods. Do you have any guidance on the best path forward here? Cheers, Tim.
