RSpec Error - "Invalid Option"

I keep getting an issue when running RSpec with Autotest. My ~/.autotest file looks like this: 

require 'autotest/growl' 
require 'autotest/fsevent' 
Autotest.add_hook :initialize do |autotest| 
        autotest.add_mapping(/^spec\/requests\/.*_spec\.rb$/) do 
        autotest.files_matching(/^spec\/requests\/.*_spec\.rb$/) 
        end 
end

Any thoughts on what's wrong?

Solution

  • FWIW, my .autotest file is identical to yours, so that's not the problem. Can you verify what autotest gem you are running? (Mine is at 4.4.6 and is working fine.)
