A solution for the “I Follow” bug with cucumber and Capybara
While working on a new application and writing tests I encountered a problem:
This is the test I have been using:
[ruby]
Scenario: Deleting a project from the main page
Given I am on the account home page
When I follow “Delete Project”
Then I should see “Your project has been deleted”
[/ruby]
The error that was shown is this:
[shell]
undefined local variable or method `node’ for #<Capybara::Driver::Node tag=“a” …
[/shell]
Here’s a screen shot of the test run:
After browsing around for quite some time, I found that the error is originated with this line in env.rb file:
[ruby]
require ‘cucumber/rails/capybara_javascript_emulation’ # Lets you click links with onclick javascript handlers without using @culerity or @javascript
[/ruby]
Commenting out this line solved the problem for me and now I can continue with my testing. I hope it will solve your problem as well.
