Capybara: How to test the title of a page?
Since the version 2.1.0 of capybara there are methods on the session to deal with the title.You have
page.titlepage.has_title? "my title"page.has_no_title? "my not found title"
So you can test the title like:
expect(page).to have_title "my_title"
According to github.com/jnicklas/capybara/issues/863 the following is also working with capybara 2.0:
expect(first('title').native.text).to eq "my title"
This works under Rails 3.1.10, Capybara 2.0.2 and Rspec 2.12, and allows matching partial contents:
find('title').native.text.should have_content("Status of your account::")
You should be able to search for the title
element to make sure it contains the text you want:
page.should have_xpath("//title", :text => "My Title")
