Question

I want to verify that a link with a specific href exists on a page. I am currently doing I should see “/some-link-here” but that seems to fail. How can I make sure that link exists without having to do click + I should be on “/some-link-here” page?

You will need to add custom step

Then /^"([^\"]*)" should link to "([^\"]*)"(?: within "([^\"]*)")$/ do |link_text, 
page_name, container|
  with_scope(container) do
    URI.parse(page.find_link(link_text)['href']).path.should == path_to(page_name)
  end
end

You can use the step like Then "User Login" should link to "the user_login page", user_login is the name of your route
