Testing front-end for a Sinatra app with RSpec and Capybara

I've used Cucumber quite a bit on my last job. It's an excellent tool, and I believe readable tests are the way to the future. But I could never get around to write effective scenarios, or maintain the boatload of text that the suite becomes once you get to a point where you have decent coverage. On top of that, it didn't seem to take much for the suite to become really slow as tests were added.

A while ago I've seen a gist by Lachie Cox where he shows how to use RSpec and Capybara to do front-end tests. That sounded perfect for me. I love RSpec, I can write my own matchers when I need them with little code, and it reads damn nicely.

So for my Rails Rumble 2010 project, as usual, I rolled a Sinatra app and figured I should give the idea a shot. Below are my findings.

# RSpec matcher to spec serialized ActiveRecord attributes.
#
# Usage:
#
#     describe Post do
#       it { should serialize(:data) }                 # serialize :data
#       it { should serialize(:registers).as(Array) }  # serialize :registers, Array
#       it { should serialize(:options).as(Hash) }     # serialize :options, Hash
#     end

  class Application < Rails::Application
    config.autoload_paths += %W(
      #{config.root}/app/controllers/concerns
      #{config.root}/app/models/concerns
    )
  end
end

class Tableless < ActiveRecord::Base

  def self.column(name, sql_type = nil, default = nil, null = true)
    columns << ActiveRecord::ConnectionAdapters::Column.new( name.to_s, default, sql_type.to_s, null )
  end

  def self.columns()
    @columns ||= [];
  end
