Cucumber and Pickle – find_latest_model!
I've been working with cucumber, capybara and pickle quite a bit recently and came across a problem.
I wanted to be able to tag a record for later reuse. The way pickle does this is to use find_model, which gets the very first record and associates this to the tag you use to name the record.
I want to get the latest record, the most recent record and tag that for reuse, there does not seem to be a way to do this currently.
So here is what I did.
Added this to my features/support/pickle.rb:
And can now use this as my step definition:
And now I have a reference I can use later for things like show and edit pages:
Then a product: "test" was just created
And I should be on product: "test"'s page
This has really helped my tests, maybe there is an alternative to having to do this?
