Given I am running an rspec story
And it uses webrat
And I am using rdebug
When I am at a breakpoint (eg after a ‘visits’ in a step)
Then how can I open the current response in a browser to see what the
page actually looks like at that point?
In the past I’ve done this…
File.open(RAILS_ROOT + “/public/duh.html”, “w”){ |f| f.puts
response.body }
And then in terminal I go to my project root and type “open
public/duh.html”. Although you may be able to get away with doing this
in your debugging session:
system “open #{RAILS_ROOT}/public/duh.html”
HTH,
Zach

thanks
perhaps a bit hackery, I’ve added this to my shared steps file:
Given “(show me)” do
show_me
end
When “(show me)” do
show_me
end
Then “(show me)” do
show_me
end
and to my helper.rb
def show_me
File.open(RAILS_ROOT + “/public/dbug.html”, “w”){ |f| f.puts
response.body }
system “open http://localhost:3000/dbug.html”
#debugger
end
so now anywhere in any story i can add (for debugging)
And (show me)
Actually, webrat already has a method for this. It will even modify the
CSS and image’s paths to work correctly… In your step simply type:
save_and_open_page
