Something strange is going on with capybara and rspec, which I'm setting up on Ruby 1.9.3, Padrino 0.10.7, rspec 2.11.0, capybara 2.0.2.
A basic Padrino project set up haml and rspec (no custom code, yet!) other than just enough to load a "/" page (which I verified does render as expected by "puts page.content" within the specs below). Here's the simple spec. "Bogus" doesn't exist, but "Home" does...note that when I puts to console, the expected true/false are CORRECT, but for some reason, the matchers aren't seeing the true/false correctly.
The one clue I have so far lies in the 2nd spec using should have_content('Bogus') which is reporting that Proc is expected...
./spec/controllers/hello_world_spec.rb
require 'spec_helper'
require 'capybara'
require 'capybara/rspec'
describe 'The HelloWorld App', :type => :feature do
context "per documentation" do
it "has bogus content" do
visit '/'
page.has_content?('Bogus')
end
it "does not have bogus content" do
visit '/'
page.should have_content("Bogus")
end
end
context "should tests" do
it "has bogus content" do
visit '/'
page.has_content?('Bogus').should == true
end
it "does not have bogus content" do
visit '/'
page.has_content?('Bogus').should == false
end
end
context "variables" do
it "has bogus content" do
visit '/'
result = page.has_content?('Bogus')
puts result
result.should == true
end
it "has Home content (expect TRUE!)" do
visit '/'
result = page.has_content?('Home')
puts result
result.should == true
end
it "does not have bogus content" do
visit '/'
result = page.has_content?('Bogus')
puts result
result.should == false
end
end
end
spec_helper.rb
PADRINO_ENV = 'test' unless defined?(PADRINO_ENV)
require File.expand_path(File.dirname(__FILE__) + "/../config/boot")
def app
##
# You can handle all padrino applications using instead:
Padrino.application
# Askme.tap do |app|
# end
end
RSpec.configure do |conf|
conf.include Rack::Test::Methods
Capybara.app = app
end
