+Controller specs wrap Rails controller tests, which expose a few different ways
+to access cookies:
+
+    @request.cookies['key']
+    @response.cookies['key']
+    cookies['key']
+
+rails-3.0.x and 3.1 handle these slightly differently, so to avoid confusion, we recommend
+the following guidelines:
+
+### Recommended guidelines for rails-3.0.0 to 3.1.0
+
+  * Access cookies through the `request` and `response` objects in the spec.
+    * Use `request.cookies` before the action to set up state.
+    * Use `response.cookies` after the action to specify outcomes.
+  * Use the `cookies` object in the controller action. 
+  * Use String keys.
+
+<pre>
+# spec
+request.cookies['foo'] = 'bar'
+get :some_action
+expect(response.cookies['foo']).to eq('modified bar')
+
+# controller
+def some_action
+  cookies['foo'] = "modified #{cookies['foo']}"
+end
+</pre>
+
+#### Why use Strings instead of Symbols?
+
+The `cookies` objects in the spec come from Rack, and do not support
+indifferent access (i.e. `:foo` and `"foo"` are different keys). The `cookies`
+object in the controller _does_ support indifferent access, which is a bit
+confusing.
+
+This changed in rails-3.1, so you _can_ use symbol keys, but we recommend
+sticking with string keys for consistency.
+
+#### Why not use the `cookies` method?
+
+The `cookies` method combines the `request` and `response` cookies. This can
+lead to confusion when setting cookies in the example in order to set up state
+for the controller action. 
+
+    # does not work in rails 3.0.0 > 3.1.0
+    cookies['foo'] = 'bar' # this is not visible in the controller
+    get :some_action
+
+### Future versions of Rails
+
+There is code in the master branch in rails that makes cookie access more
+consistent so you can use the same `cookies` object before and after the action, 
+and you can use String or Symbol keys. We'll update these docs accordingly when
+that is released.

+Controller specs live in `spec/controllers` or any example group with
+`:type => :controller`.
+
+A controller spec is an RSpec wrapper for a Rails functional test
+([ActionController::TestCase::Behavior](https://github.com/rails/rails/blob/master/actionpack/lib/action_controller/test_case.rb)).
+It allows you to simulate a single http request in each example, and then
+specify expected outcomes such as:
+
+* rendered templates
+* redirects
+* instance variables assigned in the controller to be shared with the view
+* cookies sent back with the response
+
+To specify outcomes, you can use:
+
+* standard rspec matchers (`expect(response.status).to eq(200)`)
+* standard test/unit assertions (`assert_equal 200, response.status`)
+* rails assertions (`assert_response 200`)
+* rails-specific matchers:
+  * `expect(response).to render_template(wraps assert_template)`
+  * `expect(response).to redirect_to(wraps assert_redirected_to)`
+  * `expect(assigns(:widget)).to be_a_new(Widget)`
+
+## Examples
+
+    describe TeamsController do
+      describe "GET index" do
+        it "assigns @teams" do
+          team = Team.create
+          get :index
+          expect(assigns(:teams)).to eq([team])
+        end
+
+        it "renders the index template" do
+          get :index
+          expect(response).to render_template("index")
+        end
+      end
+    end
+
+## Views
+
+* by default, views are not rendered. See
+  [views are stubbed by default](controller-specs/views-are-stubbed-by-default) and
+  [render_views](controller-specs/render-views) for details.

+Feature: anonymous controller
+
+  Use the `controller` method to define an anonymous controller derived from
+  `ApplicationController`. This is useful for specifying behavior like global
+  error handling.
+
+  To specify a different base class, you can pass the class explicitly to the
+  controller method:
+
+      controller(BaseController)
+
+  You can also configure RSpec to use the described class:
+
+      RSpec.configure do |c|
+        c.infer_base_class_for_anonymous_controllers = true
+      end
+
+      describe BaseController do
