If your controller spec never reaches your controller code:

1. Make sure you are signed in.

2. Make sure you are actually triggering a request by saying get :edit or something siliar.

3. Know that views are not rendered by default for controller specs unless you tell them to (render_views).
   ^
   describe UsersController do
   describe '#edit' do
   it 'should work' do
   sign_in
   get :edit
   end
   end
   end

   define something like this in your spec_helper.rb:

   def sign_in(user = User.new)
   controller.instance_variable_set('@current_user', user)
   end
