Why does rails not generate specs but minitests?-CodePudding

I'm using rails 7. I've just installed rspec-rails in this way:

# Gemfile
group :test do
  gem "rspec-rails"
end

And I generated a controller.

$ rails g controller welcome home
      create  app/controllers/welcome_controller.rb
       route  get 'welcome/home'
      invoke  erb
      create    app/views/welcome
      create    app/views/welcome/home.html.erb
      invoke  test_unit
      create    test/controllers/welcome_controller_test.rb
      invoke  helper
      create    app/helpers/welcome_helper.rb
      invoke    test_unit

But I found out that rails generated minitests instead of specs.

Why is this? What should I do to fix this out?

CodePudding user response：

It is necessary to add rspec-rails to :development group in order to get generators working.

# Gemfile
group :test, :development do
  gem "rspec-rails"
end
