I suspect that it’s possible in your application for the comment to disappear from the page (which is the last thing you’re asserting) before it’s deleted from the database. That means that the test can clean up before the deletion happens. If this is the case you can fix it by waiting for the actual … Read more
Your issue is a shared issue and was described in a post by Jose Valim. To be short, in integration tests, only use visit.
Another option to use RSpec::Retry which adds a retry option for intermittently failing specs. require ‘rspec/retry’ RSpec.configure do |config| # show retry status in spec process config.verbose_retry = true # Try twice (retry once) config.default_retry_count = 2 # Only retry when Selenium raises Net::ReadTimeout config.exceptions_to_retry = [Net::ReadTimeout] end
Actually there are issues with it. If you use the gem mysql2, for example, you’ll start seeing some errors like: Mysql2::Error This connection is still waiting for a result Please use this instead. It was written by Mike Perham, all credits to him. class ActiveRecord::Base mattr_accessor :shared_connection @@shared_connection = nil def self.connection @@shared_connection || ConnectionPool::Wrapper.new(:size … Read more
I had the same problem (on Linux). Fixed with: gem update selenium-webdriver Now I am using ruby 1.9.3-p286, selenium-webdriver 2.29.0, firefox 18.0 As well as rspec-rails 2.9.0, capybara 1.1.2, and capybara-webkit 0.12.1 I added selenium-webdriver 2.29.0 to my Gemfile to be safe.
Try to add: config.include Capybara::DSL to your config block. # This file is copied to spec/ when you run ‘rails generate rspec:install’ ENV[“RAILS_ENV”] ||=”test” require File.expand_path(“../../config/environment”, __FILE__) require ‘rspec/rails’ require ‘rspec/autorun’ # Requires supporting ruby files with custom matchers and macros, etc, # in spec/support/ and its subdirectories. Dir[Rails.root.join(“spec/support/**/*.rb”)].each {|f| require f} RSpec.configure do |config| … Read more
I found the following worked for me: # Check find(:css, “#cityID[value=”62″]”).set(true) # Uncheck find(:css, “#cityID[value=”62″]”).set(false)
More recently I found this great blog post. Which is great for the cases like Tony and where you really want to post something in your cuke: For my case this became: def send_log(file, project) proj = Project.find(:first, :conditions => “name=”#{project}””) f = File.new(File.join(::Rails.root.to_s, file)) page.driver.post(“projects/” + proj.id.to_s + “/log?upload_path=” + f.to_path) page.driver.status_code.should eql 200 … Read more
I’m not sure of the intended use of default_host, but app_host does what you need. I’ve found I first need to call the rails session method host! in order to set the host string that will be passed to controllers in the request object. Then you need to set Capybara.app_host to tell Capybara to call … Read more
I’ve read the Capybara readme at https://github.com/jnicklas/capybara and it solved my issue. Transactional fixtures only work in the default Rack::Test driver, but not for other drivers like Selenium. Cucumber takes care of this automatically, but with Test::Unit or RSpec, you may have to use the database_cleaner gem. See this explanation (and code for solution 2 … Read more
