NoMethodError：运行rspec并进行get / visit调用时未定义的方法`get'

Question

我完全被困在这里，并希望有人能指出我正确的方向。 我正在尝试使用rspec来测试我的webroutes。 我按照这里的例子：

https://www.relishapp.com/rspec/rspec-rails/docs/request-specs/request-spec

将我的spec文件命名为：spec / requests文件夹中的api_tests_spec.rb。

该文件如下：

require 'spec_helper'

describe "APITests" do
  describe "GET /regions"  do
    it "should return a valid response" do
      # Run the generator again with the --webrat flag if you want to use webrat methods/matchers
      get "/regions.json"
      response.status.should be(200)
      #print response.body
    end
  end
end

不幸的是，我得到的失败信息如下：

1）APITests GET / regions应该返回一个有效的响应失败/错误：获取“/regions.json”NoMethodError：未定义的方法`get'for ##。/ api_tests_spec.rb：7

有没有人知道为什么找不到该方法？ 我读过的所有内容似乎都暗示某些内容未被正确包含，但解决方案似乎总是将文件移动到请求文件夹（我已经在那里）。 提前致谢！

spec_helper.rb文件如下所示：

# This file is copied to spec/ when you run 'rails generate rspec:install'
ENV["RAILS_ENV"] ||= 'test'
require File.expand_path("../../config/environment", __FILE__)
require 'rspec/rails'
require 'rspec/autorun'

# Requires supporting ruby files with custom matchers and macros, etc,
# in spec/support/ and its subdirectories.
Dir[Rails.root.join("spec/support/**/*.rb")].each {|f| require f}

RSpec.configure do |config|
  # ## Mock Framework
  #
  # If you prefer to use mocha, flexmock or RR, uncomment the appropriate line:
  #
  # config.mock_with :mocha
  # config.mock_with :flexmock
  # config.mock_with :rr

  # Remove this line if you're not using ActiveRecord or ActiveRecord fixtures
  config.fixture_path = "#{::Rails.root}/spec/fixtures"

  # If you're not using ActiveRecord, or you'd prefer not to run each of your
  # examples within a transaction, remove the following line or assign false
  # instead of true.
  config.use_transactional_fixtures = true

  # If true, the base class of anonymous controllers will be inferred
  # automatically. This will be the default behavior in future versions of
  # rspec-rails.
  config.infer_base_class_for_anonymous_controllers = false
end

好吧，在我发布的第一个答案似乎工作了一下之后，它就停止了（仍然不确定为什么？！）

但是，对api_tests_spec.rb文件进行此更改会修复它：

require 'spec_helper'

describe "APITests", :type => :request do
  describe "GET /regions"  do
    it "should return a valid response" do
      # Run the generator again with the --webrat flag if you want to use webrat methods/matchers
      get "/regions.json"
      response.status.should be(200)
      #print response.body
    end
  end
end

有没有人知道为什么：type =>：request是必需的？ 我想只是将它放在它下面的requests文件夹中应该假设它们是请求？
