Query after POST returns Nil unless following expect(page)
ruby-on-rails,testing,rspec,capybara,rspec-rails
The server is running in a separate thread. Since click on 'Save' doesn't wait for a response, when you immediately check the database, the server hasn't had a chance to do its work. When you wait for text to appear, you know the server update has completed.
Testing Rails app with RSpec and Capybara
You could test with Capybara, so long as you use a driver that supports javascript, such as Selenium or Poltergeist - see https://github.com/jnicklas/capybara#drivers However, although I'm not an AngularJS user, I do know that it's designed to be testable, and I imagine you'd be much better off using a tool...

Step definitions for cucumber data tables for storing correct answers
I think the rows_hash method will help you. def question_correct?(cucumber_table, question, answer) hash = cucumber_table.rows_hash return false if hash[question].nil? return hash[question] == answer end The code works by converting a two column data table into a hash, where the first column is the key and the second is the value....
Rspec. Delete action doesn't work with let()
ruby-on-rails,ruby,testing,rspec,capybara
let block is not executed unless it is called in the test itself. Because you are not using this variable prior to visit_page, crew model is not created and hence it is not displayed on the page capybara is playing with. If you want it to execute before each test,...

Faking instance variable in RSpec and Capybara feature spec
ruby-on-rails,ruby,rspec,capybara
There's no easy way to accomplish what you want. The feature spec is handled mostly by Capybara, not RSpec. Capybara runs the majority of the browser / rails server behavior in an external process. This make it inaccessible from RSpec's point-of-view. Thus you cannot use stubs / doubles in this...

To do this: Capybara.register_driver :poltergeist_debug do |app| Capybara::Poltergeist::Driver.new(app, :inspector => true)...

ruby-on-rails,ruby,testing,selenium,capybara
One thing that helps is to use the save_and_open_page in your capybara tests. This way you can open up the html source of the test page and verify if your html id's and classes actually exist / are rendering the way you think they are. This has especially been the...

ruby,date,datepicker,cucumber,capybara
Ideally, don't select by text if you can avoid it. But in this case try using a regex instead of just plain text. find('.day', :text => Regexp.new("^#{day.day}$"), match: :prefer_exact).click There's a little related reading at the end of this (currently unimplemented) issue: https://github.com/jnicklas/capybara/issues/1256...

There are different location techniques and ways to get to the desired element. stock-description-input class looks like a good thing to rely on. Use send_keys() to fill the area: text_area = first(:css, 'textarea.stock-description-input').native text_area.send_keys('Test') ...
