undefined method `symbol' for nil:NilClass #42

Line 54 of api_steps.rb (request path, request_opts) throws the undefined methodsymbol' for nil:NilClass` in Rails 5 on API mode.

I'm currently using an emergency patch of api_steps.rb

What could be causing the error? I would like to eventually move the call back to request.

Hello Aaron.
Could you provide stack trace of error?

@kalys How would I get the stack trace? I only found the line undefined method``symbol' for nil:NilClass when I ran cucumber , and by modifying the code in the step definitions, I found that the line at fault was the request call.

Is there a way to get the system to display a stack trace?

Could you try to run cucumber with -b option?

@kalys the stack trace, obtained from running it with the -b option, is as follows
