def ==(other)

end

#assert_no_selector(*args) ⇒ Object Also known as: refute_selector

Asserts that a given selector is not on the page or current node. Usage is identical to Capybara::Node::Matchers#assert_selector

Query options such as :count, :minimum, :maximum, and :between are considered to be an integral part of the selector. This will return true, for example, if a page contains 4 anchors but the query expects 5:

page.assert_no_selector('a', :minimum => 1) # Found, raises Capybara::ExpectationNotMet
page.assert_no_selector('a', :count => 4)   # Found, raises Capybara::ExpectationNotMet
page.assert_no_selector('a', :count => 5)   # Not Found, returns true

Raises:

#assert_no_text(type, text, options = {}) ⇒ true #assert_no_text(text, options = {}) ⇒ true

Asserts that the page or current node doesn’t have the given text content, ignoring any HTML tags.

Overloads:

  • #assert_no_text(type, text, options = {}) ⇒ true

    Parameters:

    • type (:all, :visible)

      Whether to check for only visible or all text

    • text (String, Regexp)

      The string/regexp to check for. If it’s a string, text is expected to include it. If it’s a regexp, text is expected to match it.

    • :count (Integer) — default: nil

      Number of times the text is expected to occur

    • :minimum (Integer) — default: nil

      Minimum number of times the text is expected to occur

      Range of times that is expected to contain number of times text occurs

      Time that Capybara will wait for text to eq/match given string/regexp argument

  • #assert_no_text(text, options = {}) ⇒ true

    Parameters:

    • text (String, Regexp)

      The string/regexp to check for. If it’s a string, text is expected to include it. If it’s a regexp, text is expected to match it.

    Options Hash (options):

    • :count (Integer) — default: nil

      Number of times the text is expected to occur

#assert_selector(*args) ⇒ Object

Asserts that a given selector is on the page or current node.

page.assert_selector('p#foo')
page.assert_selector(:xpath, './/p[@id="foo"]')
page.assert_selector(:foo)

By default it will check if the expression occurs at least once, but a different number can be specified.

page.assert_selector('p#foo', :count => 4)

This will check if the expression occurs exactly 4 times. See Finders#all for other available result size options.

If a :count of 0 is specified, it will behave like #assert_no_selector; however, use of that method is preferred over this one.

It also accepts all options that Finders#all accepts, such as :text and :visible.

page.assert_selector('li', :text => 'Horse', :visible => true)

‘assert_selector` can also accept XPath expressions generated by the XPath gem:

page.assert_selector(:xpath, XPath.descendant(:p))

Parameters:

  • options (Hash)

    a customizable set of options

Raises:

#has_text?(type, text, options = {}) ⇒ Boolean #has_text?(text, options = {}) ⇒ Boolean Also known as: has_content?

Checks if the page or current node has the given text content, ignoring any HTML tags.

Whitespaces are normalized in both node’s text and passed text parameter. Note that whitespace isn’t normalized in passed regexp as normalizing whitespace in regexp isn’t easy and doesn’t seem to be worth it.

By default it will check if the text occurs at least once, but a different number can be specified.

page.has_text?('lorem ipsum', between: 2..4)

This will check if the text occurs from 2 to 4 times.

Overloads:

  • #has_text?(type, text, options = {}) ⇒ Boolean

    Parameters:

    • type (:all, :visible)

      Whether to check for only visible or all text

    • text (String, Regexp)

    Options Hash (options):

    • :count (Integer) — default: nil

      Number of times the text is expected to occur

    • :minimum (Integer) — default: nil
