I'm having some trouble getting Chrome to work with RSpec/Capybara on Ubuntu 13.10 64-bit. By default it launches Firefox - we tried to change this a variety of ways, including:
http://actsasblog.ca/2011/09/28/how-to-use-chrome-with-capybara/
/home/.../xxx_spec.rb:8:in `<top (required)>': undefined local variable or method `“chromedriver”' for main:Object (NameError)
We also tried:
require 'capybara/rspec' require 'rspec' require 'selenium-webdriver' Capybara.register_driver :selenium do |app| Capybara::Selenium::Driver.new(app, :browser => :chrome) end /home/ubuntu/.rbenv/versions/2.0.0-p247/lib/ruby/gems/2.0.0/gems/selenium-webdriver-2.39.0/lib/selenium/webdriver/chrome/service.rb:50:in `start': unable to connect to chromedriver http://127.0.0.1:9515 (Selenium::WebDriver::Error::WebDriverError)
Is there another step required to use Chrome? I'm new with Selenium.

In the Windows taskbar at the bottom, right-click on Chrome. Click Pin to taskbar. On your computer, click the Start menu . Click Control Panel. Click Programs Default Programs Set your default programs. On the left, select Google Chrome. Click Set this program as default. Click OK. On your computer, open Chrome. In the top right, click More .
Some teams however may prefer using some of the Capybara methods (like feature ) to make it obvious that the test uses Capybara, while still disable the rest of the methods, like given (alias for let ), background (alias for before ), etc. You can configure which of the methods to be enabled by using the EnabledMethods configuration option.
By default, the cop disables all Capybara-specific methods that have the same native RSpec method (e.g. are just aliases).
Capybara lets you find elements that match a certain visibility using the :visible option. :visible accepts both boolean and symbols as values, however using booleans can have unwanted effects. visible: false does not find just invisible elements, but both visible and invisible elements.
if I remember correctly:
I downloaded latest chromedriver from this resource https://code.google.com/p/selenium/wiki/ChromeDriver
Then insert in spec_helper.rb
Capybara.register_driver :chrome do |app| Capybara::Selenium::Driver.new(app, :browser => :chrome) end Capybara.javascript_driver = :chrome and it worked for me

Add this gem to Gemfile to install and update chromedriver.
gem "chromedriver-helper", "1.0.0" See https://github.com/flavorjones/chromedriver-helper. The bugs listed in comments to previous answers have been fixed.
Then add this to spec_helper.rb:
Capybara.register_driver :selenium do |app| Capybara::Selenium::Driver.new(app, browser: :chrome) end That's it.
