[Question] Skip ActionDispatch::SystemTest integration possible?

[thenoseman]

Hi,
I was wondering if it is currently possible to skip the ActionDispatch::SystemTest integration when using Rails 5.1?

Usecase:
Our integrationtests require the server (puma/passenger) to run as a separate process.
The workflow while developing would be to start bin/rails server in one terminal tab and run a integration spec in the other.

When I activate rspec-rails 3.7.1 this doesn't work anymore since the ActionDispatch::SystemTest integration start the server itself.

As I understand the Integration is activated when requiring example.rb (https://github.com/rspec/rspec-rails/blob/master/lib/rspec/rails/example.rb#L11) and thus requiring 'rspec/rails/example/system_example_group'.

Is it possible to skip that to make the old way (two processes) work again?

Thanks!

Ironically someone had the inverse issue recently, they'd already turned off the inbuilt server and were having process configuration issues. I believe if you set Capybara.run_server = false you'll restore the behaviour you want. See #1813
