I've never had so much to write about ... these last few days with cucumber and culerity have been great ...
Just a couple days ago, I was using cucumber and culerity to test some select box interaction and none of my tests were passing but everything I did manually worked as expected.
After tons of digging through the various gems, I found out that only a click event is actually being triggered, no change event.
So this is what I came up with for the step definition -
See improvement?, let me know.

I've been doing lots and lots of cucumber testing these days. I would get this error every so often and there's really search results for it, so here's what you do -
1) Edit your features/support/env.rb file
2) Add "Capybara.server_boot_timeout = 50" #... the default is 10
3) Save and rerun your tests.

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?
