Rspec testing PUT/DELETE with Rails on Grape API

Vote count:

I'm building my API using Rails + Grape and I'm trying to rspec the PUT and DELETE routes. This is what my test looks like and it's failing:

describe "API::V1::User" do
  let(:user) { FactoryGirl.create :user }

  describe "PUT /users/:id" do
    expect{ put "/users/#{user.id}", name: 'New Name' }.to change{user.reload.name}
  end

  describe "DELETE /users/:id" do
    user # lazy load user
    expect{ delete "/users/#{user.id}"}.to change{User.count}.by(1)
  end
end

So is the expect{} not being evaluated before the 'to' method is being called? Or is the http request still being processed which is why the database hasn't actually changed?
