Capybara path helpers throwing ActionController::RoutingError: No route matches [GET] "/"

I'm using rspec-rails 2.13.1 and Capybara 1.1.4. Whenever I try to get root_path or get page_path("anything"), the spec throws ActionController::RoutingError:No route matches [GET] "/"

I can run visit 'http://example.dev no problem, but I'd much rather use URL helpers. Any idea why this might not be working?

You can still use named urls in Capybara like

visit root_path

But you can't use get, post in Capybara, which are better for controller tests. Also, they are considered low level in Capybara's integration tests.
