Basic RSpec for Rails Views

Here’s some introductory material for using RSpec to test your views.

Why would you test your views with rspec if you could use cucumber+webrat/capybara??

Keep up the good work. Your posts are showing you are keeping up well with the Rails ecosystem.

Take care, cs

Thanks for the great post. Like dkln however, I am not convinced about the usefulness of testing views if you already do acceptance/integration testing with cucumber/steak and capybara/webrat.

Currently I skip functional and view tests in all my rails projects as I believe Unit and acceptance testing can cover pretty much everything.

The same here. After all the whistles I went back to test units with shoulda. No rspec and cukes just barebones testing

You can use basic HTML markup (e.g. <a>) or Markdown.
