pickle_steps not matching

[R Law]

I recently upgraded cucumber-rails from 0.3.2 to 0.4.0.beta.1 and
suddenly my pickle step definitions aren't working. I've re-run both
generators but this step:

And an article_submission exists with title: "Testing Web Apps"

Isn't matched by:

# create a model
Given(/^#{capture_model} exists?(?: with #{capture_fields})?$/) do |
name, fields|
create_model(name, fields)
end

My pickle_steps.rb is unchanged. All other steps are passing normally.
I've tried the examples in the README such as:

Given a user exists

And I get these errors:

You can implement step definitions for undefined steps with these
snippets:

Given /^a user exists$/ do
pending # express the regexp above with the code you wish you had
end

Given /^an article_submission exists with title: "([^"]*)"$/ do |arg1|
pending # express the regexp above with the code you wish you had
end

Hi Rob,

It looks like your factories etc are now not being loaded before pickle, therefore pickle doesn't know about 'article_submission' and the like.

Try explicitly requiring your blueprints, or factories, or if you aren't using any, the models, at the top of features/support/pickle.rb

Let me know how you get on,

Cheers,
Ian

It looks like it's related to this issue:

Hello Ian, I also have similar situation. Using rails 3.0.5, cucumber-
rails 0.4.0, pickle 0.4.7. Everything installed properly but not so
sure why I'm getting undefined steps. I remember at some point it
worked but today after reinstalling gem and rails on a new machine
this doesn't work anymore. I can still use pickle without mechanics
and factory_girl right? Please give me an example of how to
explicitly requiring at the top of features/support/pickle.rb. I'm not
using any blue print or factories. Thanks so much.


Scenario: Employee found in Nucleus staffing table
Given a employee exists with a :first_name "John"

You can implement step definitions for undefined steps with these
snippets:

Given /^a employee exists with a :first_name "([^"]*)"$/ do |arg1|

pending # express the regexp above with the code you wish you had
end

Hi

The step def you provide has the colon in the wrong place. It should read:

Given a employee exists with a first_name: "John"

Hope that helps,
Cheers,
Ian

Ian, You are great. What a silly me.
