What you've posted should work, assuming that some_url points to a page that lists all of the var objects' names. The fact that you're using a sequence shouldn't matter at all. Using let!() (vs just let()) means that the var object is generated before the example (scenario in this case), and any call to "var" returns that same object. Any chance you could post the exact code (including the controller action, failure message, and possibly output of the actual html) so we can see what's really going on? It's quite common for things to get lost in translation when you write "I have code like this" instead of the actual code.
