Any tool to assist in building REST controller specs?

I'm sick of writing out the same controller specs each time I make a new controller. I know I can use the scaffold generator, but there are enough little things I have to change that it usually doesn't save me much time.

Are there any projects/tools out there that provide some sort of base set of specs and/or a DSL to make this easier?

I've never found that any two REST controllers I wanted to write had similar enough interfaces that the tests were at all similar (and generally, I recommend Cucumber, not controller specs).

Something like inherited_resources or Rails 3's respond_with is very useful for writing the controllers, but I'm not sure about the tests.
