Apologies as this feels like an FAQ, but the only answer I can find refers to a bug in a much earlier version of rspec, and this feels like a common thing to do, so I suspect we're doing something stupid.
The issue seems to be that if we mock a class, that mock carries between specs when running 'rake spec' - the specs pass when run individually. In one spec, we mock an active record model: MachineInstance = mock("MachineInstance") in a spec in another file that runs later, when we access MachineInstance as what should be a regular activerecord class, it's still a mock: Spec::Mocks::MockExpectationError in 'MachineInstance should create a new instance given valid attributes' Mock 'MachineInstance' received unexpected message :create! with ({:name=>"value for name", :machine_image_id=>1}) We're running rspec 1.1.12. Thanks for any pointers. Marcus
