Test folder does not exist, using Rspec

I have generated the project using 

rails new app -T

Shouldn't this command make a test folder by default?

I am trying to add the test folder in my ruby project. here is my gem file:

group :development, :test do

  gem 'rspec', '~> 3.4'
  gem 'byebug'

  gem 'sqlite3'
end

and then :

bundle install --without production

it does not generate the test folder inside my project even after refreshing the project?

Since you are using RoR, if think you need to install rspec-rails instead of rspec. To create the test directory (spec, actually) you need to run the rspec installer: rails generate rspec:install

With -T option your are skipping the unit-test framework because you want to use rspec, am I right? If this is the case you don't need a test directory. rspec uses the spec directory instead. As I said, to create the spec folder you need to run the rspec installer like this: 

rails generate rspec:install
