i want to check page's title through rspec. in chrome i see the expected result but rspec claim the title is empty(in chrome view source it also ok). here some code:
application.html.rb
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>site | <%= yield(:title) %></title>
<%= stylesheet_link_tag "application", :media => "all" %>
<%= javascript_include_tag "application" %>
<%= csrf_meta_tags %>
</head>
<body>
<%= yield %>
</body>
</html>
home.html.erb
<% provide(:title, 'Home') %>
<h1><%= yield(:title) %></h1>
<article>
<div><a href="#">Cameras</a></div>
<div><a href="#">TVs</a></div>
<div><a href="#">Laptops</a></div>
</article>
home_page_controller.rb
class HomePageController < ApplicationController
def home
end
end
routes.rb
Reviewsite::Application.routes.draw do
get "home_page/home"
home_pages_spec.rb
require 'spec_helper'
feature "HomePages" do
before { visit '/home_page/home'}
scenario do
expect(page).to have_selector('h1', text: "Home")
end
scenario do
expect(page).to have_selector('title', text: "site | Home")
end
end
and the error
Failures:
1) HomePages
Failure/Error: expect(page).to have_selector('title', text: "site | Home")
Capybara::ExpectationNotMet:
expected to find css "title" with text "site | Home" but there were no matches. Also found "", which matched the selector but not all filters.

instead of
expect(page).to have_selector('title', text: "site | Home")
i changed it to
expect(page.html).to have_selector('title', text: "site | Home")
and it worked, i double checked it. if anyone understand why page alone doesnt work, please share.
