Which rack environment do cucumber features run in?

I can suppress Rack::Timeout logger messages in Rspec by putting the following into my spec helper:

Rack::Timeout.unregister_state_change_observer(:logger) if ENV['RACK_ENV'] == 'test'

But if I want this to work in features/support/env.rb, then I need to remove the if statement. So I'm guessing that cucumber does not run in the test environment. What does it do instead?

Solution

  • It uses RAILS_ENV instead of RACK_ENV.

    In my env.rb file I just had it output the ENV variable. Do this to double check, but in mine I clearly see:

    "RAILS_ENV"=>"test"
