How to click_link with no text?

Question

How can I click below link with Capybara's click_link method?

<a data-method="delete" href="/users/sign_out" rel="nofollow">
  <span title="Sign out" class="glyphicon glyphicon-off"></span>
</a>

Answer 1

You could locate the element using its href attribute:

page.click_link('', :href => '/users/sign_out')

Note that the first parameter of click_link is the links text, id or name. We use '' since the text is blank.

Alternatively, use the find method to find the link using the href attribute (or any other attribute) and then click it.

page.find(:css, 'a[href="/users/sign_out"]').click

Answer 2

Add id to link and use its id.

click_link('link_id')
