Deprecation Warning

When doing "rake spec", I received these deprecation warnings. Are they important and how do I resolve them? I also received a bunch of deprecation warnings regarding differences between RSpec 2 and RSpec 3 about certain things being changed in the newer version.

I had the same error -- I found the problem in my create_spec.rb file. I had typed the line expect(page).to have_content("New todo_list") as Jason had, but somewhere along the way, my page title had become "New Todo List", so I changed that line to expect(page).to have_content("New Todo List") and it worked.

Thanks for the answer Kelcey, That is not my problem, both match, but that does give me some hints of what types of things to be looking for. Thanks again!
