6,862 Pointsrspec installation errors
I have followed the video and cannot seem to figure out how to install rspec. I went through all of the previous questions asked on the topic and none of the solutions worked. I have listed my gemfile below and the error when I run rails generate rspec:install.

17,351 PointsFrom what I see double check the syntax of how you rspec gem is installed
group :development, :test do gem 'rspec-rails', '~> 3.0' end
Also check this site out might help out https://github.com/rspec/rspec-rails. if you like my answer vote me up or mark me for the best answer thank you and GREAT coding!

6,862 PointsI double checked the syntax and I have researched the documentation on GitHub and things still don't work. I might just create a new app and start over.
