Testing as a Chameleon

  • Desired talk duration: 15 minutes

Abstract

I hope you are all familar with Capybara - acceptance test framework for web applications. All in all Capybara is a great tool, but it's ability to mimic user behaviour is limited to very basic browser manipulation. Writting efficent and maintainable end user perspective tests requires more than that. Thus, some people found Cucumber as tool which can help overcome these limitations. But Cucumber is not perfect - it takes a lot of time to define and maintain all these steps. Hence, I would like to introduce you to Kameleon - a pure Ruby enchancement for Capybara.
