Rails Functional test assert_select javascript respond_to
- by Macint
Hello,
I am currently trying to write functional tests for a charging form which gets loaded on to the page via AJAX(jQuery). It loads the form from the charge_form action which returns the consult_form.js.erb view.
This all works, but I am having trouble with my testing.
In the functional I can go to the action but I cannot use assert_select to find a an element and verify that the form is in fact there.
Error:
1) Failure:
test_should_create_new_consult(ConsultsControllerTest) [/test/functional/consults_controller_test.rb:8]:
Expected at least 1 element matching "h4", found 0.
<false> is not true.
This is the view.
consult_form.js.erb:
<div id="charging_form">
<h4>Charging form</h4>
<div class="left" id="charge_selection">
<%= select_tag("select_category", options_from_collection_for_select(@categories, :id, :name)) %><br/>
...
consults_controller_test.rb:
require 'test_helper'
class ConsultsControllerTest < ActionController::TestCase
def test_should_create_new_consult
get_with_user :charge_form, :animal_id => animals(:one), :id => consults(:one), :format => 'js'
assert_response :success
assert_select 'h4', "Charging form" #can't find h4
end
end
Is there a problem with using assert_select with types other than html?
Thank you for any help!
