Testing authentication functionality with Capybara and Devise? See the following checklist:

* Use shared connections or disable transactional fixtures. * Set Capybara.default_host to match config.session_store.domain or you'll get "401 Unauthorized" * Name of test should end with "integration", e.g. describe "Dashboard Business integration" do * Add the following to your integration tests:

include Warden::Test::Helpers
  Warden.test_mode!

  after do
    Warden.test_reset!
  end

Full example of integration test with Devise, Capybara, and minitest:

class IntegrationSpec < MiniTest::Spec
  include Rails.application.routes.url_helpers
  include Capybara::DSL
  include Warden::Test::Helpers
  Warden.test_mode!

  before do
    @routes = Rails.application.routes
  end

  after do
    Warden.test_reset!
  end

  def sign_in(user)
    login_as(user, scope: :user)
  end

  def sign_out
    logout(:user)
  end

  def default_url_options
    Rails.configuration.action_mailer.default_url_options
  end
end

MiniTest::Spec.register_spec_type( /integration$/, IntegrationSpec )

Does your boss want you to run integration tests with Capybara, Devise, Minitest::Spec, Capybara-Webkit, and the Headless gem?

Then use this code, which features: * Automatic test failure on JavaScript errors * Check for XSS attack vectors with assert_no_alerts. * Sign in/out with Devise

require 'headless'
require 'awesome_print'

headless = Headless.new(reuse: true, destroy_at_exit: false)
puts "Headless mode. Display :#{headless.display}. PID #{Process.pid}"
headless.start

class IntegrationSpec < MiniTest::Spec
  include Rails.application.routes.url_helpers
  include Capybara::DSL
  include Warden::Test::Helpers
  Warden.test_mode!

  before do
    assert_no_js_errors
  end

  after do
    Warden.test_reset!
  end

  def sign_in(user, scope = :user)
    login_as(user, scope: scope)
  end

  def sign_out(scope = :user)
    logout(scope)
  end

  def assert_no_js_errors
    errors = page.driver.error_messages
    assert_equal 0, errors.size, errors.ai
  end

  def assert_no_alerts(types = [:alert, :confirm, :prompt])
    types.each do |type|
      alerts = page.driver.send(:"#{type}_messages")
      assert_equal 0, alerts.size, alerts.ai
    end
  end

  def default_url_options
    Rails.configuration.action_mailer.default_url_options
  end
end

MiniTest::Spec.register_spec_type( /integration$/, IntegrationSpec )

Remember to name your tests like this:

require 'test_helper'

describe "Dashboard integration" do
...
end

Otherwise the tests won't inherit from the IntegrationSpec class.

Use the following code to check for JavaScript errors, or XSS vulnerabilities:

class IntegrationSpec < MiniTest::Spec
  def assert_no_js_errors
    assert_equal 0, page.driver.error_messages.size, page.driver.error_messages.ai
  end

  def assert_no_alerts(types = [:alert, :confirm, :prompt])
    types.each do |type|
      alerts = page.driver.send(:"#{type}_messages")
      assert_equal 0, alerts.size, alerts.ai
    end
  end
end

Test plan * Insert XSS hacks into database * Write integration tests that visit all pages

Requires * capybara * capybara-webkit

Helper:

Given(/^I receive a message from "(.*?)" with data$/) do |from, table|
  # Convert AST table into hash
  data = table.raw.transpose.to_h # ".with_indifferent_access" if needed
  # Do something with the data
end

Test:

And I receive a message from "jebus@hell.com" with data
  | first_name | last_name | status | price |
  | Jebus | Hell | broken | 4€ |

Then(/^when I press backspace in '(.*?)'$/) do |input|
  focus_field(input)
  find_field(input).native.send_keys(:Backspace)
end

When Capybara/Cucumber tests fail:

undefined method `+' for nil:NilClass (NoMethodError)
.../.rbenv/versions/2.3.1/lib/ruby/gems/2.3.0/gems/minitest-5.10.1/lib/minitest/assertions.rb:135:in `assert'

Do this:

1. Install test-unit

gem 'test-unit'

1. Include assertions in env.rb
