RSpec: request specs vs feature specs

#rails #testing #ruby #tutorial

In this screencast I introduce a rather small feature to Happi, setting the reply-to address for new threads.

P.s. I got a new microphone and am still trying to figure out how to use it properly, so apologies for any breathing or weird noises :)
