Whats your helper and spec files look like ? I have working / simple example in my skeleton repo that should work https://github.com/spheromak/test_cook_skeleton/tree/master/test/integration/default/serverspec

Hey ho!

I’m having a bit of trouble running serverspec ... erm... specs in Test Kitchen 1.0.0.alpha.7.

This is an exerpt of the kind of error I’m seeing:

I have my specs in test/integration/default/serverspec/localhost (with a spec_helper.rb in its parent dir). All three specs fail with the same error.

The node conversion ran without problems, and I manually verified that it worked as expected, but the specs failed miserably.

Any ideas where should I look for the problem?
