Capybara >= 2.3 includes the new window management API. It can be used like: new_window = window_opened_by { click_link ‘Something’ } within_window new_window do # code end
I think that the find statement here is the one with the implicit wait, so Capybara will wait until the element is on the page, but won’t wait for it to become visible. Here, you would want Capybara to wait for the visible element to appear, which should be achievable by specifying the visible option: … Read more
Try installing libqt via homebrew. $ brew install qt@5.5
The selenium driver now supports this From Capybara you would access it like this: page.driver.browser.switch_to.alert.accept or page.driver.browser.switch_to.alert.dismiss or page.driver.browser.switch_to.alert.text
Another simple solution is to access the HTML attribute you are looking for with []: find(‘#my_element’)[‘class’] # => “highlighted clearfix some_other_css_class” find(‘a#my_element’)[‘href’] # => “http://example.com # or in general, find any attribute, even if it does not exist find(‘a#my_element’)[‘no_such_attribute’] # => “” Note that Capybara will automatically try to wait for asynchronous requests to finish, … Read more
fill_in accepts the id as first parameter: fill_in ‘course_group_courses_attributes_2_name’, :with => ‘some text’
I like this much better. expect(page).to have_selector(‘input’, count: 12) https://github.com/jnicklas/capybara/blob/415e2db70d3b19b46a4d3d0fe62f50400f9d2b61/spec/rspec/matchers_spec.rb
If you have a reference to the element itself you’d use set instead of fill_in: find(:css, “input[id$=’donation_pledge_hundreds’]”).set(“10”) However for your specific example, fill_in should be able to find the element as you know it’s ID: fill_in ‘donation_pledge_hundreds’, with: “10”
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.

I really found jamuraa’s answer helpful, but going for full xpath gave me a nightmare of a string in my case, so I happily made use of the ability to concatenate find’s in Capybara, allowing me to mix css and xpath selection. Your example would then look like this: find(‘#some_button’).find(:xpath,”.//..”).fill_in “Name:”, :with => name Capybara … Read more
