    # RSpec Rails can automatically mix in different behaviours to your tests
    # based on their file location, for example enabling you to call `get` and
    # `post` in specs under `spec/controllers`.
    #
    # You can disable this behaviour by removing the line below, and instead
    # explicitly tag your specs with their type, e.g.:
    #
    #     RSpec.describe UsersController, :type => :controller do
    #       # ...
    #     end
