Net::ReadTimeout error on Windows with Capybara 2.2

[mattwynne]

See https://gist.github.com/mattwynne/7821742 for the error.

This happens at the end of a Cucumber scenario on a Windows 7 box with Capybara 2.2 running Firefox. When I pinned back to Capybara 2.1 the problem went away.

I have a related (the same?) the same problem but on Ubuntu 13.10, firefox 26.0. Stacktrace and behavior seems the same, but I don't get a timeout though.

I was not even running seleium tests when the error occurred. Maybe that was the problem? 17 scenarios are passing before one scenario fails in the After hook in cucumber.rb:8, after that all tests fail in the After hook.

Reverting to 2.1.0 or commenting out the call to reset_sessions! works.
