CapybaraTable
Some neat Capybara selectors and matchers for working with HTML tables.
Installation
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'capybara_table'And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install capybara_table
If you're using RSpec, require the matchers:
require "capybara_table/rspec"
Otherwise
Usage
If you have a table like this:
<table>
<caption>People</caption>
<tr>
<th>First Name</th>
<th>Last Name</th>
<th>Age</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Jonas</td>
<td>Nicklas</td>
<td>31</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2">John</td>
<td>22</td>
</tr>
</table>Then you can do this
# find a table by caption
find(:table, "People") # by caption
# find a table row by its headers, even works with colspans!
# (note the extra hash at the end)
find(:table_row, {"First Name" => "Jonas", "Last Name" => "Nicklas"}, {})
# Assert on a table row with RSpec
expect(find(:table, "People")).to have_table_row("First Name" => "Jonas", "Last Name" => "Nicklas")
# Assert on a table row with MiniTest
within :table, "People" do
assert_selector(:table_row, {"First Name" => "Jonas", "Last Name" => "Nicklas"}, {})
