bundle exec rspec spec/requests/static_pages_spec.rb from Hartl's tutorial isn't working

I'm following Michael Hartl's ruby on rails tutorial to test the sample app(3.2.1 Test-driven development), but I'm getting following error after typing bundle exec rspec spec/requests/static_pages_spec.rb

Here is the code from spec/requests/static_pages_spec file:

require 'spec_helper'

describe "Static pages" do

  describe "Home page" do

    it "should have the content 'Sample App' " do
      visit '/static_pages/home'
      expect(page).to have_content('Sample App')
    end

  end

end

Gemfile:

source 'https://rubygems.org'
ruby '2.0.0'
#ruby-gemset=railstutorial_rails_4_0

gem 'rails', '4.0.0'

group :development, :test do
  gem 'sqlite3', '1.3.7'
  gem 'rspec-rails', '2.13.1'
end

group :test do
  gem 'selenium-webdriver', '2.0.0'
  gem 'capybara', '2.1.0'
end

gem 'sass-rails', '4.0.0'
gem 'uglifier', '2.1.1'
gem 'coffee-rails', '4.0.0'
gem 'jquery-rails', '2.2.1'
gem 'turbolinks', '1.1.1'
gem 'jbuilder', '1.0.2'

group :doc do
  gem 'sdoc', '0.3.20', require: false
end

group :production do
  gem 'pg', '0.15.1'
  gem 'rails_12factor', '0.0.2'
end

routes.rb:

SampleApp::Application.routes.draw do
  get "static_pages/home"
  get "static_pages/help"
end

I've been searching for solution, but have not found one. Please keep in mind that I'm new to Ruby on Rails and web development.

I had the same issue recently and by just changing the version of the gem

gem 'selenium-webdriver', '2.0.0'

to the last one :

gem 'selenium-webdriver', '2.35.1'

it fixed it! Didn't have to install the rubyzip gem.

gem 'selenium-webdriver', '2.0.0'

to

gem 'selenium-webdriver'

in your Gemfile

The error message:

in `require': cannot load such file -- zip/zip (LoadError)

is referring to a missing gem called "rubyzip". It should have been installed by bundler along with selenium-web driver, but sometimes these things are not perfect. In this case, the latest version of the "rubyzip" gem has changed library structure, so 'zip/zip' does not exist. Bundler will by default install the latest version, which is why there is no error on install, but there will be an error when you try to run the project, because selenium-webdriver dependency lists are not aware of the difference.

Try adding gem 'rubyzip', '< 1.0.0' to your test group, and re-run bundle install.

The problem appears to be caused by an update to the rubyzip gem, see https://github.com/rubyzip/rubyzip

The selenium-webdriver gem probably needs updating to reflect those changes - I have logged an issue: https://github.com/vertis/selenium-webdriver/issues/3
