Question

I am using Rspec, webrat, selenium rc for tests.

I am trying to do integration test with selenium and rspec.

I just looked in my development database and learned that my integration tests are using my development database and not my test database.

How an I configure rails and rspec and selenium to use my test database.

All my other tests seem to be using my test database.

Answer 1

Do you have a line like

  ENV["RAILS_ENV"] ||= 'test'

in your spec_helper.rb?
does it force the use of the test db if you add/replace it with

ENV["RAILS_ENV"] = 'test'

And could this be the root of your problem from yesterday – re email validation??
