Instance Method Details

#render_preview(name) ⇒ Nokogiri::HTML

Render a preview inline. Internally sets ‘page` to be a `Capybara::Node::Simple`, allowing for Capybara assertions to be used:

“‘ruby render_preview(:default) assert_text(“Hello, World!”) “`

Note: ‘#rendered_preview` expects a preview to be defined with the same class name as the calling test, but with `Test` replaced with `Preview`:

MyComponentTest -> MyComponentPreview etc.

Parameters:

  • preview (String) —

    The name of the preview to be rendered.

Returns:

  • (Nokogiri::HTML)
