This is the sample application for the Ruby on Rails Tutorial by Michael Hartl.
Modified by Stinge Su.
My rails is 4.2.1, ruby is 2.1.2
You may be counter some problems in this sample application.
- 1. Rspec can not be bundled
'require': cannot load such file -- rails_helper
step 1 :
add config.include Capybara::DSL to spec_helper.rb
include Capybara to use visit method
step 2 :
modify your Gemfile
gem 'selenium-webdriver', '~>2.35.1'
your selenium-webdriver version need to be upgraded.
step 3 :
using GET method in config/rounter.rb
get '/home' => 'static_pages#home' redirct localhost:3000/home
step 4 :
modify your config/environment/development.rb production.rb. test.rb
from Rails.application.configure to YourAppName::Aplication.configure
- 2. Guard can not find class
ERROR - Could not load 'guard/rspec'
cannot load such file -- guard/guard (LoadError)
step 1:
check your capybara version in Gemfile
make sure it's version is more than 2.2.0
or even delete the description of capybara
step 2:
bundle update
step 3:
bundle exec guard
- 3. Spork server causes a Exception
Exception encountered: #<ActiveRecord::ConnectionNotEstablished: ActiveRecord::ConnectionNotEstablished>
#<NameError: uninitialized constant RSpec::Core::CommandLine>
step 1:
check your spec_helper.rb is the same as this
step 2:
add the support file to spork
mkdir spec/support
and add the support file called spork_patch.rb like this
step 3:
restart spork server.bundle exec spork
step 4:
bundle exec rspec spec/requests/static_pages --drb in new window
- 4. Named routes in Rspec could not work
undefined local variable or method 'XXX_path' if you not defined named routes in rspec_helper
you just add this line:
config.include Rails.application.routes.url_helpers
- **5. RSpec be_false error** - `expected false to respond to 'false?'`
using `bcrypt-ruby 3.0.1` for password validation need to notice there are some differences in RSpec 3.0
please change `be_true/befalse` to `be_truthly/be_falsey`
