Here is the error I am getting:
.....F
Failures:
1) LayoutLinks should have the right links on the layout
Failure/Error: click_link "Sign up"
Could not find link with text or title or id "Sign up"
# ./spec/requests/layout_links_spec.rb:37:in `block (2 levels) in
<top (required)>''
Finished in 0.28358 seconds
6 examples, 1 failure
Here is the test file for LayoutLinks. The last ''it block''
has the
click_link that is giving me the problem:
#spec/requests/layout_links_spec.rb:
require ''spec_helper''
describe "LayoutLinks" do
it "should have a Home page at: /" do
get ''/''
response.should have_selector(''title'', :content =>
"Home")
end
it "should have an About page at: /about" do
get ''/about''
response.should have_selector(''title'', :content =>
"About")
end
it "should have a Contact page at: /contact" do
get ''/contact''
response.should have_selector(''title'', :content =>
"Contact")
end
it "should have a Help page at: /help" do
get ''/help''
response.should have_selector(''title'', :content =>
"Help")
end
it "should have a Sign up page at: /signup" do
get "/signup"
response.should have_selector(''title'', :content =>
"Sign up")
end
it "should have the right links on the layout" do
visit root_path
click_link "About"
response.should have_selector(''title'', :content =>
"About")
click_link "Contact"
response.should have_selector(''title'', :content =>
"Contact")
click_link "Help"
response.should have_selector(''title'', :content =>
"Help")
click_link "Sign up"
response.should have_selector(''title'', :content =>
"Sign up")
click_link "Home"
response.should have_selector(''title'', :content =>
"Home")
end
The other click_link''s pass their tests. It''s only the
''Sign up'' link
that is giving me the problem. The only difference I can discern is
that the page with the ''Sign up'' link is handled by a
different
controller: Users v. Pages.
Here is the application layout:
application.html.erb:
-------------------
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title><%= title() %></title>
<%= csrf_meta_tag %>
<%= render ''layouts/stylesheets'' %>
</head>
<body>
<div class="container">
<%= render ''layouts/header'' %>
<section class="round">
<%= yield %>
</section>
<%= render ''layouts/footer'' %>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Here is the Home page that contains the ''Sign Up'' link:
home.html.erb: (inserted at ''yield'' in application layout)
--------------
<h1>Me</h1>
<p>Hi, this is my website.</p>
<%= link_to "Sign up", signup_path, :class =>
"signup_button round" %>
Here are my routes:
config/routes.rb:
-----------------
SampleApp::Application.routes.draw do
get "users/new"
#get "pages/home"
#get "pages/contact"
#get "pages/about"
#get "pages/help"
match ''/signup'', :to => ''users#new''
match ''/about'', :to => ''pages#about''
match ''/contact'', :to =>
''pages#contact''
match ''/help'', :to => ''pages#help''
root :to => ''pages#home''
end
Here are my controllers:
users_controller.rb:
-------------------
class UsersController < ApplicationController
def new
@title = "Sign up"
end
end
pages_controller.rb:
------------------
class PagesController < ApplicationController
def home
@title = "Home"
end
def contact
@title = "Contact"
end
def about
@title = "About"
end
def help
@title = "Help"
end
end

If it is the html then what html is generated for that link and what do you expect it to be to pass the test? If you think the html is correct and the test should pass then show us the html for the link.

Hi,
Thanks for the response. When I manually click on the ''Sign
up'' link on
the Home page, it successfully displays the following page (which is
what I want):
app/views/users/new.html.erb
----------------------------
<h1>Users#new</h1>
<p>Find me in app/views/users/new.html.erb</p>
And if I click on View Source for the Home page, the ''Sign up''
link is
there (not to be confused with the "Sign in" link):

Thanks Fred. After spending hours creating a duplicate app, I happened to cut and paste the ''Sign up'' click_link in a different order, and the tests passed. After pasting the ''Sign up'' click_link in several different places and examining the results, I came up with the explanation you posted. I was about to give up! I would have seen your explanation eventually, so thanks. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
