Another tip is to use script/console and walk the app manually.
In script/console you get an app object which is the context that your
story steps / integration tests run in.
e.g.
$script/console
Loading rails blah blah blah
>> app.post "/login", :username => "matt", :password => "secret"
>> puts app.response.body
>> app.visits "/hello"
etc.
Often quite handy for having an explore when you can't figure out how
to drive something from a test.

Hmm, thanks. Still not sure if I'm diagnosing my problem correctly.
Just to
be clear, I don't have any user authentication going on, just a
regular
Rails button_to call. I tried installing webrat and put "visits '/'
" in my
"given" step and "clicks_button" in my "when" step. However I get
an error
from my_story.rb - "No such file or directory - open
tmp/webrat-12233801950.html.
Presumably my issue would also apply in posting a form in a regular
Rails
integration test. The example on pp207-208 of AWDR doesn't suggest
that
anything needs to be done in a post call to achieve session
authentication.
And I see here -
http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActionController/RequestForgeryProtection/ClassMethods.html#M000693
that forgery protection is actually turned off in testing - which
I've
confirmed in my config/environments/test.rb. So maybe I have some
other
problem causing my response test to fail. Any other suggestions
would be
appreciated.
Have you looked at your log/test.log file to see if there are any
exceptions being thrown? Or at least to see what is being rendered,
perhaps you're hitting a path you don't intend.
