I’m writing functional tests for a chrome app written entirely in javascript. I decided to use Cucumber and Selenium Webdriver and run the tests on chrome. Wrote Selenium code inside Cucumber step definitions and it works fine (I’ve only just begun though).
I see that I can do headless testing with capybara (or webrat) and I’m not interested in that. Is there anything else that I’d gain if I use capybara?
I recently had the same question. Capybara gives you a pretty nice DSL to interact with the DOM for one thing. Another big advantage is you can easily switch drivers. On my team, we constantly switch from the Chrome driver (desktop browser) to the iWedbDriver (mobile safari in iphone simulator).
