I'd run the tests one at a time, figure out which one is bugging.
Then step through it
require 'ruby-debug'
debugger

Another option I've used in multi-threaded environments is to have a
thread that check for existence of a file and drops into a debugger
should it exist (so you can create that file should a loop appear, and
examine the running threads to see where they're at). similar to
Thread.new {
loop do
if File.exist? 'stop_now'
require 'ruby-debug'
debugger
end
sleep 1
end
}
