I''m trying to provide our customers with a page where they can add up to 20 items to their cart in one form.

Hi everyone, I am relatively new to rspec and I am running into a wall in testing my views. I have a RESTful resource Contracts with a nested resource of Line_items. I am trying to figure out how to test the "edit" form of the Line_items.

I want to change parts of this form in order to use default values (with a disabled input). The problem is if I change it from text_field to text_field_tag that part of the form stops functioning.
