Terminal in Mac does not back trace errors when testing

Hello,

When following the course step by step I get a notification message:

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.

I see that Jason's test results include a section "Failures" that my test results does not contain.

I have tried adding the config.raise_errors_for_deprecation inside the config folder but I can't get it to look like Jason's.

Thank you

This message only applies to deprecations - changes in rspec syntax between Jason's version and your version. In other words: this will only tell you more about what is old and why in the syntax that Jason is using.

You should see all the relevant failures and passes higher up, just scroll the console up.

You would have to use the exact same version of rspec to use Jason's code and not get deprecation warnings or 'true' value errors (when you see an error that 'true is comparing to true?' or something similarly confusing, just change the be_true in specs to be_truthy and be_false to be_falsey).
