I have defined this step:
Then /^the "([^"]*)" field(?: within (.*))? should be empty$/ do |field, parent|
with_scope(parent) do
field = find_field(field)
field_value = (field.tag_name == 'textarea') ? field.text : field.value
if field_value.respond_to? :shou开发者_开发问答ld
field_value.to_s.should == ''
else
assert_equal('', field_value.to_s)
end
end
end
and when I run my scenario it raise the following error:
Then the "City" field within the "Buying a House" form should be empty # Ambiguous match of "the "City" field within the "Buying a House" form should be empty":
features/step_definitions/my_steps.rb:1:in `/^the "([^"]*)" field(?: within (.*))? should be empty$/'
features/step_definitions/web_steps.rb:35:in `/^(.*) within (.*[^:])$/'
The step mentioned is as following:
When /^(.*) within (.*[^:])$/ do |step, parent|
with_scope(parent) { When step }
end
So, I have a lot questions...
How could a possible define my step without matching that?
When /^(.*) within (.*[^:])$/
seems absolutely inevitable.However, this step doesn't cause ambiguity:
features/step_definitions/web_steps.rb:141
Then /^the "([^"]*)" field(?: within (.*))? should contain "([^"]*)"$/ do |field, parent, value|
with_scope(parent) do
field = find_field(field)
field_value = (field.tag_name == 'textarea') ? field.text : field.value
if field_value.respond_to? :should
field_value.should =~ /#{value}/
else
assert_match(/#{value}/, field_value)
end
end
end
- Couldn't I just remove the
When /^(.*) within (.*[^:])$/
step? Is it part of "the system"? I mean, it IS into/step_definitions/web_steps.rb
, and it comes withrake cucumber:install
.
If fine to edit web_steps.rb. In fact, the latest version Cucumber suggests deleting it entirely:
# TL;DR: YOU SHOULD DELETE THIS FILE
#
# This file was generated by Cucumber-Rails and is only here to get you a head start
# These step definitions are thin wrappers around the Capybara/Webrat API that lets you
# visit pages, interact with widgets and make assertions about page content.
# If you use these step definitions as basis for your features you will quickly end up
# with features that are:
#
# * Hard to maintain
# * Verbose to read
