similar to: Best practices for capybara's features spec?

I''m new with Capybara and after a good amount of google, I still can''t figure out how the #within methods works! I can use it only if I call visit before? There''s no way to use it on a string, like the `page = Capybara.string(html_string)` trick? When describe a view, I want something like that: describe "path/to/view.html.erb" do it "should pass"

This https://github.com/rspec/rspec-rails/commit/59793dcc349b64f4ebcf742606371001256c774d is exciting news!! ("this adds capybara matchers to view and helper specs") Now, if I just knew how to take advantage of it? Do I have to require something else in spec_helper? I have already added included gem ''rspec-rails'', ''~> 2.6.0.rc2'' gem

Hi, I''ve recently been working with Capybara 0.4.0 and the bundled Selenium driver in Rails 2.3.8 with Ruby 1.8.7 to do integration testing with javascript. The problem I have is that Capybara''s page object does not seem to be affected by the Javascript, even though I can see the changes happening in the browser, they are not reflected in that object''s markup. Here is

On this server I already installed it in the gemsets for Ruby 1.8.7 and Rails 2.3.11 without any problem ... but trying (many times .. ) to install in Ruby 1.9.2 (Rails 3.0.5) raises an error ... It''s not related to the gem itself as the gem doesn(t build any native extension .. but to one dependency... I don''t know where to start looking for ... here is the log message :

Hi there! In my app I have an entry page that is called with an post-request from another site. This post-request contains a parameter called key and is used for an app authorisation of that other site. How can I simulate such a behaviour in respect and capybara?

Hey everybody I''m currently reading through the Pragmatic Programmers RSpec book, and I really enjoy it. But I’m facing some problems because of the fact that the book is already some years old, I guess. I have installed rvm and use Ruby 1.9.3, and I didn’t really get some Rails code examples to work properly, so I tried it with a 1.8.7 installation, but there I had some other problems

I''m trying to use Capybara to test this.

Railers, I am running an application on Rails 2.3.2. For some reason within our organization, we wish to remain on this version of Rails. For BDD/Testing, we use Cucumber. So I installed Cucumber (0.8.5), Capybara (0.3.9) and Selenium-webdriver (0.0.17). But when I run Cucumber on any feature, I get an error saying *" wrong number of arguments (2 for 1) (ArgumentError)"*, (Check here

Hello, I noticed that a call on hold is disconnected after 5 minutes, whatever the value of the "rtpholdtimeout" parameter in sip.conf. Tested from v1.8.10.0 to 1.8.32.3. The version 1.8.8.0 is not affected. I don't know between 1.8.8.0 and 1.8.10.0. Does anybody has a solution to increase the timeout of a call on hold ? Is this a bug or a new parameter ? Thanks. --

I am having an issue where a feature works fine but the corresponding test fails, and I can''t understand why. I created a mock application to demonstrate the problem. https://github.com/assafshomer/clear_button All it does is show an input form with a clear button. The clearing happens by redirecting back to the same form. It does clear it when you run the app, but the test for it

When I''m executing cucumber tests, I noticed that sometimes rails app (in test env.) getting several the same requests (GET or POST) usually around 3, and it doesn''t render anything with empty HTTP status code. Have anyone met something similar to that issue? here is some example of log file: Started POST "/account" for 127.0.0.1 at 2010-11-30 22:34:17 +0200

One of the things that DOES make a big difference for me is font-antialiasing (AA). (OK, maybe I am picky). Does anyone have experience/knowledge on that subject? What surprises me is that for a few fonts (BitStream Vera Sans, for instance), it is active, whereas it is completely absent for most others. Why is that? (BTW, I just found out that I get the best results so far for the new MS font

>From looking at the RSpec Rails documentation (https://www.relishapp.com/rspec/rspec-rails/docs/view-specs/view-spec) it seems like rendered is just a string and you can''t really do any assert_select type stuff out of the box. After Googling around, it seems that the RSpec authors decided that if you want that functionality, you should just use Capybara or some such... is that

Hi, I was writing an integration test for my user signup form (with capybara), and found that my test was failing due to a validation error: "email is already taken". I''m a bit confused because I thought when I run "rspec spec/some_spec.rb", the test database would be wiped clear? Is that not the case? Patrick J. Collins http://collinatorstudios.com
