Question

I am starting to use cucumber for high level testing. I have this defined in my gem file:

group :test do
  # Pretty printed test output
  gem 'turn', '< 0.8.3', :require => false
  gem 'rspec-rails', '2.6.1'
  gem 'cucumber-rails'#, '2.6.1'
  gem 'webrat'#, '0.7.1'
  gem 'capybara'
  gem 'database_cleaner'
end

and this in my test.feature

  Scenario: Go to contact
    Given I go to contact page
    Then I should see contact page

When I run bundle exec cucumber features I have to define all the steps. Isn’t go to page supposed to be a build-in defined step? It seems that capybara and cucumber are not working together. Am I missing something?

Answer 1

These steps are no longer defined in more recent cucumber-rails versions. See here for a better explanation of why: http://aslakhellesoy.com/post/11055981222/the-training-wheels-came-off.
