Perhaps you forgot to commit your updated Gemfile, because your app would crash when I ran the tests. I noticed your Gemfile was missing rspec-rails, Capybara, and factory_girl_rails. Once I added these gems and did a bundle install, the tests ran. Also, with these gems included in the Gemfile you don't need Warden. I'm not sure what you were using it for, but in any case the tests ran without it. Finally, for the sake of organization and convention, your integration tests should be in a directory named something like integration or requests. Also, the convention for file names is to use pascal case, not camel case, fyi.
