That's a known issue, I think: https://www.macruby.org/trac/ticket/336

I ran into several problems trying to use both miniunit and the built-in version of test/unit (mostly about integration with mocking packages). I'm now using the testunit gem: 	test-unit-2.0.7

It's too bad shoulda doesn't work. It's a nice test-unit add-on.
