Converting to modular sinatra app breaks tests - testing

Question

I've modularised by classic sinatra app and moved my routes in my sinatra app into individual routes files as per https://stackoverflow.com/a/5030173/111884, however, I can't seem to get my tests working.
This is what my files look like:
./web.rb
require 'sinatra'
require 'sinatra/flash'
class MyApp < Sinatra::Application
# ...
end
require_relative 'models/init'
require_relative 'helpers/init'
require_relative 'routes/init'
./routes/init.rb
require_relative 'main'
./routes/main.rb
# The main routes for the core of the app
class MyApp < Sinatra::Application
get '/' do
erb :main
end
end
./spec/spec_helper.rb
ENV['RACK_ENV'] = 'test'
require 'minitest/autorun'
require 'rack/test'
require 'factory_girl'
# Include factories.rb file
begin
require_relative '../test/factories.rb'
rescue NameError
require File.expand_path('../test/factories.rb', __FILE__)
end
# Include web.rb file
begin
require_relative '../web'
rescue NameError
require File.expand_path('../web', __FILE__)
end
./spec/web_spec.rb
begin
require_relative 'spec_helper'
rescue NameError
require File.expand_path('spec_helper', __FILE__)
end
include Rack::Test::Methods
def app() Sinatra::Base end
describe "Some test" do
# ...
end
Rakefile
# Test rake tasks
require 'rake/testtask'
Rake::TestTask.new do |t|
t.libs << "test"
t.libs << "spec"
t.test_files = FileList['test/factories.rb', 'test/test_*.rb', 'spec/spec_helper.rb', 'spec/**/*_spec.rb']
t.verbose = true
end
The output of the tests is:
<h1>Not Found</h1>
It doesn't seem to be loading the ./routes/*.rb files.
I'm using Sinatra::Application, instead of Sinatra::Base, but https://stackoverflow.com/a/5030173/111884 uses it. It also references it here http://www.sinatrarb.com/extensions.html. I have tried changing it to use Sinatra::Base, but it didn't fix it.
I've also tried Sinatra tests always 404'ing and Using Cucumber With Modular Sinatra Apps, but they don't work.

I think you just need to change your app method to return your modularised application class (MyApp) rather than the Sinatra::Base class. So replace:
def app() Sinatra::Base end
in web_spec.rb, with:
def app
MyApp
end
Rack::Test::Methods depends on the app method to tell it which class to call to process requests. In a simple non-modular Sinatra application that class is Sinatra::Base because that is the class in which the routes are applied by default. In a modular application that is the class in which you define your routes (MyApp in your case).
