I'm working through a few chefspec tutorials and have come up against an issue.
My codebase has a two cookbooks in, with cookbookB being a collection of common methods/libraries that are used by other cookbooks. CookbookA depends on CookbookB and has this defined it the metadata.
The recipes run as intended and achieve the desired result.
When running chef exec rspec spec on cookbookA I receive this error:

Any help is appreciated as so far my google-fu has failed me. thanks.
The cookbook sc_common is not findable from Berkshelf. This shouldn't be related to ChefSpec specifically, if you run berks install you should see the same error. You probably need to specify an explicit source for that cookbook if it isn't available in your default source(s).
