Rake not running any tests with minitest

I have a file containing a class of multiple tests (using minitest). I have require 'minitest/autorun' at the top of the file and all tests run correctly when I call the file directly (ruby my_tests.rb).

So far, so good. However, now I'm trying to run my tests via rake. 

require "rake/testtask"
task :default => [:test]

Rake::TestTask.new do |t|
  t.libs << Dir.pwd + "/lib/examples"
  t.test_files = FileList['test/test*.rb']
end

Calling rake shows test/my_test.rb getting called but no tests within the class get run (0 tests, 0 assertions, etc.). I do get these warnings:

...gems/minitest-5.8.0/lib/minitest/assertions.rb:17: warning: already initialized constant MiniTest::Assertions::UNDEFINED
...ruby/2.1.0/lib/ruby/2.1.0/minitest/unit.rb:80: warning: previous definition of UNDEFINED was here

How can I run my tests within rake successfully? I am not using rails.

EDIT: Here is the top of my test file:

require 'minitest/spec'
require 'minitest/autorun'
require 'minitest/reporters'

reporter_options = { color: true }
Minitest::Reporters.use![Minitest::Reporters::DefaultReporter.new(reporter_options)]

class Test_PowerSpecInputs < Minitest::Test
  def setup
    @mc = TestClass.new()
  end

  def test_does_lib_have_constant
    # my test code
  end
end

jphager2 got me thinking about tool versions and it turned out that my version of rake was fairly old. Updating to 11.x did the trick.

Try changing your Rakefile to this.

require "bundler/gem_tasks"
require "rake/testtask"

Rake::TestTask.new(:test) do |t|
  t.libs << "test"
  t.libs << "lib"
  t.test_files = FileList['test/**/*_test.rb']
end

task :default => :test
