Core Patterns

Basic Test (RSpec)

require 'capybara/rspec'

RSpec.describe 'Login', type: :feature do
  it 'logs in with valid credentials' do
    visit '/login'
    fill_in 'Email', with: '[e-mail]'
    fill_in 'Password', with: 'password123'
    click_button 'Login'
    expect(page).to have_content('Dashboard')
    expect(page).to have_current_path('/dashboard')
  end

  it 'shows error for invalid credentials' do
    visit '/login'
    fill_in 'Email', with: '[e-mail]'
    fill_in 'Password', with: 'wrong'
    click_button 'Login'
    expect(page).to have_content('Invalid credentials')
  end
end

DSL

# Navigation
visit '/path'
go_back
go_forward

# Interacting
fill_in 'Label or Name', with: 'text'
choose 'Radio Label'
check 'Checkbox Label'
uncheck 'Checkbox Label'
select 'Option', from: 'Select Label'
attach_file 'Upload', '/path/to/file'
click_button 'Submit'
click_link 'More Info'
click_on 'Button or Link'

# Finding
find('#id')
find('.class')
find('[data-testid="x"]')
find(:xpath, '//div')
all('.items').count

# Matchers
expect(page).to have_content('text')
expect(page).to have_selector('#element')
expect(page).to have_css('.class')
expect(page).to have_button('Submit')
expect(page).to have_field('Email')
expect(page).to have_link('Click Here')
expect(page).to have_current_path('/expected')
expect(page).to have_no_content('error')

Within Scope

within('#login-form') do
  fill_in 'Email', with: '[e-mail]'
  click_button 'Login'
end

within_table('users') do
  expect(page).to have_content('Alice')
end
