    get :show, id: field
    expect(response.status).to eq(200)
  end

HTTP request methods will accept only the following keyword arguments params, headers, env, xhr, format

According to the new API, you should use keyword arguments, params in this case:

  it 'should show field' do
    get :show, params: { id: field.id }
    expect(response.status).to eq(200)
  end
