FactoryGirl interferes with the create action when using controller inheritance.

[col]

There is a good description of this issue here: cucumber/cucumber-rails#224

Is this a factory_girl issue?

I posted the solution over in cucumber-rails as well, but I'll post it here. You need to include FactoryGirl::Syntax::Methods into Cucumber's World, otherwise it just goes into Object (which, of course, any controller will inherit from).

env.rb

World(FactoryGirl::Syntax::Methods)

Thanks for the tip. That worked as expected.
