[rspec-users] using rspec to verify an xpath (via capybara/cucumber)
I am doing:
page.should have_xpath("//img[contains(@class,
''foobar'')]", :count => 0)
but cucumber tells me:
expected xpath "//img[contains(@class, ''foobar'')]"
to return something
(RSpec::Expectations::ExpectationNotMetError)
... Shouldn''t this be returning true/false ?

Shouldn''t this be returning true/false ?have_xpath is a Capybara matcher that defines its own failure message: https://github.com/jnicklas/capybara/blob/master/lib/capybara/rspec/matchers.rb#L112-114 HTH, David

"have_[xpath]" is a custom matcher in Capybara. So, the answer would be no. https://github.com/jnicklas/capybara/blob/master/lib/capybara/rspec/matchers.rb On Sep 20, 2011, at 3:45 PM, Patrick J.
