minitest-rails-capybara¶ ↑

Capybara integration for MiniTest::Rails.

Install¶ ↑

gem install minitest-rails-capybara

This installs the following gems:

minitest
minitest-rails
minitest-matchers
minitest-capybara
capybara

Configure¶ ↑

Follow the instructions to configure minitest-rails. Then add minitest-rails-capybara to the :test group in Gemfile:

group :development, :test do
  gem "minitest-rails"
end

group :test do
  gem "minitest-rails-capybara"
end

Add the following to your minitest_helper.rb file to the test directory.

require "minitest/rails/capybara"

Usage¶ ↑

Generate a new acceptance test using the default generator:

rails generate integration_test CanAccessHome

And you can specify use of the MiniTest::Spec DSL by providing the --spec option:

rails generate integration_test CanAccessHome --spec

You can now use Capybara in your acceptance tests!

require "minitest_helper"

class CanAccessHomeTest < MiniTest::Rails::ActionDispatch::IntegrationTest
  def test_homepage_has_content
    visit root_path
    assert page.has_content?("Home#index")
  end
end

Or, using the Spec DSL:

require "minitest_helper"

describe "Can Access Home Acceptance Test" do
  it "has content" do
    visit root_path
    assert page.has_content?("Home#index")
  end
end
