test user sign up with cucumber - failing

i'm trying to test user sign up. using rails+devise 1.1.rc2 I have this test:

Given I am on the landing page
When I go to the registration page
And I fill in "Firstname" with "F"
And I fill in "Lastname" with "L"
And I fill in "Country" with "C"
And I fill in "State" with "S"
And I fill in "City" with "C"
And I fill in "Email" with "[email protected]"
And I fill in "Password" with "password"
And I fill in "Password Confirmation" with "password"
And I press "Register"
Then I should see "You have registered successfully. If enabled, a confirmation was sent your e-mail."

This is the error snippet:

expected the following element's content to include "You have registered successfully. If enabled, a confirmation was sent your e-mail.":
You are being redirected. (RSpec::Expectations::ExpectationNotMetError)
./features/step_definitions/web_steps.rb:145:in `/^(?:|I )should see "([^"]*)"$/'
features/registration.feature:42:in `Then I should see "You have registered successfully. If enabled, a confirmation was sent your e-mail."

I think it's got something to do with a redirect, not sure how to fix this? But in my app_controller.rb i have this so the user is taken to the dashboard page...

def after_sign_in_path_for(resource_or_scope)
  "/dashboard"
end

its just the test thats failing, the actual registration functionality is fine.

This has been answered in another stack overflow post. Basically the flash message does not persist through redirect_to, but render :action => xxxx will make it work.

authlogic flash[:notice] does not show up in cucumber webrat step

I would recommend upgrading Devise to be the latest (1.2, at current writing) release.

Then I would debug what's happening here by putting Then show me the page above the step that's failing. I think your flash message is wrong.
