This is our current Travis configuration for our standard Rails 4 + Ruby 2 projects that have Capybara Webkit test suites and Postgres databases. It relies on the bundle_cache.rb and bundle_install.sh files from http://randomerrata.com/post/45827813818/travis-s3 to cache gem bundles for much faster test suite setup time.

Handle only 404s dynamically. It uses a normal controller and route for 404s, letting everything else go to the Rails default /public error pages. In my case it was to use the subdomain logic in my ApplicationController.
module MyApp
class Application < Rails::Application
require Rails.root + 'lib/custom_public_exceptions'
config.exceptions_app = CustomPublicExceptions.new Rails.public_path
end
end
