Thing is, nowhere in my application is there a call of response_code!
The error lies in the paginate method - an error revealed by browsing
after doing rails server, NOT by testing! If testing had told me the
paginate method was undefined, I would be satisfied.

In any case.. the better error reporting in cucumber/rspec will
hopefully quell these concerns.

I'll get back to you on how the rspec + cucumber works out. I've been
reading the background of cucumber and I'll get them installed/running
soon.... hopefully.

I came across this though: webrat or capybara? I'm not sure which.
Either seems fine? I think I'll just choose webrat...?
