I´m going through the rather painful upgrade to RSpec 3.1. I have several feature specs which worked in RSpec 2.99 that raise:
undefined method `feature' for main:Object
I noticed that I have to use RSpec.describe
in my other specs since they are are no longer attached to the main object. What would the equivalent call for feature be?
In my features I require 'rails_helper'
require 'rails_helper'
feature 'Facebook Authentiation' do
...
end
spec/rails_helper.rb
# This file is copied to spec/ when you run 'rails generate rspec:install'
ENV["RAILS_ENV"] ||= 'test'
require 'spec_helper'
require File.expand_path("../../config/environment", __FILE__)
require 'rspec/rails'
require 'rails/application'
# Add additional requires below this line. Rails is not loaded until this point!
ActiveRecord::Migration.maintain_test_schema!
RSpec.configure do |config|
# If you're not using ActiveRecord, or you'd prefer not to run each of your
# examples within a transaction, remove the following line or assign false
# instead of true.
config.use_transactional_fixtures = false
# RSpec Rails can automatically mix in different behaviours to your tests
# based on their file location
config.infer_spec_type_from_file_location!
end
spec/spec_helper.rb #

RSpec.configure do |config|
# rspec-expectations config goes here. You can use an alternate
# assertion/expectation library such as wrong or the stdlib/minitest
# assertions if you prefer.
config.expect_with :rspec do |expectations|
# This option will default to `true` in RSpec 4. It makes the `description`
# and `failure_message` of custom matchers include text for helper methods
expectations.include_chain_clauses_in_custom_matcher_descriptions = true
end
# rspec-mocks config goes here. You can use an alternate test double
# library (such as bogus or mocha) by changing the `mock_with` option here.
config.mock_with :rspec do |mocks|
# Prevents you from mocking or stubbing a method that does not exist on
# a real object. This is generally recommended, and will default to
# `true` in RSpec 4.
mocks.verify_partial_doubles = true
end
# These two settings work together to allow you to limit a spec run
# to individual examples or groups you care about by tagging them with
# `:focus` metadata. When nothing is tagged with `:focus`, all examples
# get run.
config.filter_run :focus
config.run_all_when_everything_filtered = true
# Limits the available syntax to the non-monkey patched syntax that is recommended.

config.default_formatter = 'doc'

# Print the 10 slowest examples and example groups at the
# end of the spec run, to help surface which specs are running

# Run specs in random order to surface order dependencies. If you find an

config.order = :random
# Seed global randomization in this process using the `--seed` CLI option.
# Setting this allows you to use `--seed` to deterministically reproduce
# test failures related to randomization by passing the same `--seed` value
# as the one that triggered the failure.
Kernel.srand config.seed
end
Gemfile
# ...
group :development, :test do
gem 'rspec-rails', '~> 3.1.0'
end
# ...
group :test do
# ...
gem 'capybara', '~> 2.4.3'
end
It looks like your forgot to require capybara at your spec/rails_helper.rb
require 'capybara/rspec'
Also you can try to remove this line:
config.disable_monkey_patching!
Or check if capybara adds feature method to Rspec namespace:
RSpec.feature "My feature" do
...
end
I've faced the same issue with rails 4.2 even though I've had
require 'capybara/rspec'
in rails_helper.rb
and
require 'spec_helper'
in feature spec.
Solution is to require 'rails_helper'
in feature spec as well.
