Forgot to add in my spec_helper.rb I load all ruby files in spec/spec_helpers/
Dir[File.dirname(__FILE__) + '/spec_helpers/**/*.rb'].each { |f require f }
and then in my spec config I include specific ones I need:
Spec::Runner.configure do |config|
config.include SpecHelpers::MyApplicationMatchers
config.include SpecHelpers::ControllerMacros, :type => :controller
