uninitialized constant Factory (NameError)

[Macsig]

Hello guys,
I'm trying to set Factory Girl up with Cucumber but I have hard time
to do it.

1- I have installed the gem through
gem install thoughtbot-factory_girl --source http://gems.github.co
[and I can see it (thoughtbot-factory_girl (1.2.1)) listed among my
gems when I run gem list]

2- I have created a file called factories.rb in my spec falder

3- I have added the line below to my cucumber/env file
require "#{Rails.root}/spec/factories"

4- my factories.rb looks like
Factory.define :article do |a|
a.code "9999999"
a.name "foo"
a.unit "bar"
end


When I run cucumber features I get the error below:
uninitialized constant Factory (NameError)

Am I missing something?

Are you using the latest Cucumber? Do you have a
config/environments/cucumber.rb file? If so, simply add these lines to
it:

require 'rubygems'
require 'factory_girl'

Here's an example:
