Okay,
this is driving me nuts really. I've scoured through a lot of posts on Stackoverflow trying to resolve this, but none of the solutions seem to be working.
This is the error message I'm getting when running the command: bundle exec rspec
c700595:vtm deh0002a$ bundle exec rspec

So first I looked up the error I'm getting. From the information I could find, this seems to be missing configuration, so I followed all steps again I could find on the gem pages and the posts on stackoverflow.

# This file was generated by the `rails generate rspec:install` command. Conventionally, all
# specs live under a `spec` directory, which RSpec adds to the `$LOAD_PATH`.
# The generated `.rspec` file contains `--require spec_helper` which will cause this
# file to always be loaded, without a need to explicitly require it in any files.
#
# Given that it is always loaded, you are encouraged to keep this file as
# light-weight as possible. Requiring heavyweight dependencies from this file
# will add to the boot time of your test suite on EVERY test run, even for an
# individual file that may not need all of that loaded. Instead, consider making
# a separate helper file that requires the additional dependencies and performs
# the additional setup, and require it from the spec files that actually need it.
#
# The `.rspec` file also contains a few flags that are not defaults but that
# users commonly want.

I created a /spec/factories.rb* and defined my Factory there according to the documentation specified on the FactoryGirl page.
Can someone please tell me what I am missing?
