RSpec's context (which is basically an alias for describe) takes over your whole application. No object may have its own context method, or you will always receive errors like

"No description supplied for example group declared on ~/project/app/..."

The easiest workarounds:

do not name any method context
use describe instead of context in your specs, and put this into your spec_helper.rb:\
Spec::DSL::Main.class_eval do
if method_defined? :context
undef :context
end
end
