session_store secure: true breaks this gem

[chase439]

When Rails application's Rails::Application.config.session_store :active_record_store, {key: '_some_key', secure: true", the set_rack_session and get_rack_session methods break as it seems like it can't read encrypted session data.

One solution is to condition it not to secure: true when Rails.env.test?

We have the same issue after adding SameSite='None' options to our cookies.

Well, It's not gem issue. It's rather incorrect setup.

If you use SSL in test env then you should also configure capybara to visit your testing app server via https as well. If you don't use SSL then you should NOT set secure: true for test env.

That's all.

# * <tt>:secure</tt> - Whether this cookie is only transmitted to HTTPS servers.
