a test environment to reproduce errors when creating rake-tasks which include url_helpers

given i want to make use of helpers and url_helper in rake task: /lib/tasks/foo.rake

findings ↑

whenever you include

include Rails.application.routes.url_helpers
...

in rake task then ‘rake test’ will produce errors because of the included url_helpers

1) Error:
ToolsControllerTest#test_should_get_edit:
RuntimeError: In order to use #url_for, you must include routing helpers explicitly. For instance, `include Rails.application.routes.url_helpers`.
