One thing I found was that I had to run rspec from the discourse root directory, rather than in the plugin directory

(ie, I have to do

```plaintext
cd ~/workspace/discourse
rspec plugins/babble/spec

```

rather than

```plaintext
cd ~/workspace/discourse/plugins/babble
rspec spec

```

)

This is probably a failing of my environment or my tests somehow, but don’t have motivation to find out why.
