Deprecation Warnings:
RSpec::Core::ExampleGroup#example is deprecated and will be removed in RSpec 3. There are a few options for what you can use instead:
- rspec-core's DSL methods (
it
,before
,after
,let
,subject
, etc) now yield the example as a block argument, and that is the recommended way to access the current example from those contexts. - The current example is now exposed via
RSpec.current_example
, which is accessible from any context. -
If you can't update the code at this call site (e.g. because it is in an extension gem), you can use this snippet to continue making this method available in RSpec 2.99 and RSpec 3:
RSpec.configure do |c| c.expose_current_running_example_as :example end
(Called from /home/treehouse/.rbenv/versions/2.0.0-p353/lib/ruby/gems/2.0.0/gems/capybara-2.1.0/lib/capybara/rspec.rb:20:in `block (2 levels) in <top (required)>')

If you need more of the backtrace for any of these deprecations to
identify where to make the necessary changes, you can configure
config.raise_errors_for_deprecations!
, and it will turn the
deprecation warnings into errors, giving you the full backtrace.

It might be worth editing your post to get rid of the deprecation warnings - they don't add much!

/home/treehouse/projects/odot/app/views/layouts/application.html.erb:12
Looks like here:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Odot</title>
<%= stylesheet_link_tag "application", media: "all", "data-turbolinks-track" => true %>
<%= javascript_include_tag "application", "data-turbolinks-track" => true %>
<%= csrf_meta_tags %>
</head>
<body>
<% flash.each do |type, message| %>
<div class= "alert flash <%= type %">
<%= message %>
</div>
<% end %>
<%= yield %>
</body>
</html>
Particularly this line:
<div class= "alert flash <%= type %">
Notice after type, the % is missing the closing tag:
<div class= "alert flash <%= type %>">
Simple typo that is not related to rspec at all.
