ok, so here's the deal. Going over the Rails tutorial. We're running a testing environment to make sure that the things we want showing up on our pages are making it. Doing this using pages_controller_spec.rb file. And this is one of three arguments that we passed:
describe "GET 'home'" do
it "returns http success" do
get 'home'
response.should be_success
end
it "should have the right title" do
get 'home'
response.should has_selector("title",
:content => "Ruby on Rails Tutorial Sample App | Home")
end
All three tests are the same. When I run rspec spec/ from the command line (I'm using windows vista) I get this error on all three tests:
1) PagesController GET 'home' should have the right title
←[31mFailure/Error:←[0m ←[31mresponse.should have_selector("title",←[0m
←[31mNoMethodError:←[0m
←[31mundefined method `has_selector?' for #←[0m
←[36m # ./spec/controllers/pages_controller_spec.rb:13:in `block (3 levels)
in '←[0m
As you can see, I am not using anything called has_selector, but have_selector. Where is this coming from? Does anyone know how to fix it? I've checked over the code repeatedly for 2 days now to make sure that my example matches the video and that the text being checked for by rspec is identical on the actual web pages. I mean, heck, the pages even display properly after I start the server. So I am totally without a clue. The closest I came to an answer was on another forum where someone mentioned that they forgot to include the 'render_views' near the top after the first 'describe'. Double checked that too and I got it where it needs to be. *sad programmer*
