Hi Andre,
Thanks for your reply ... following is the
authentication_pages_spec.rb file which now resides in the spec/
features folder ... all of the tests pass except three.
require 'spec_helper'

This is the error that I am getting for three of the failures:

and here is the utilities.rb file to be found in the spec/support

fill_in "Password", with: employee.password
click_button "Sign in"
end

page.should have_selector('div.flash.error', text: message)
end
end

end

Capybara.string(page.body).has_selector?('title', text: text)
end
end
def sign_in(employee)
visit signin_path
fill_in "Email", with: employee.email
fill_in "Password", with: employee.password
click_button "Sign in"
# Sign in when not using Capybara.
cookies[:remember_token] = employee.remember_token
end
def valid_signin(admin)
fill_in "Email", with: admin.email
fill_in "Password", with: admin.password
click_button "Sign in"
end
I did try and move the:
describe "submitting to the update action" do
test to the spec/request folder and it passes in the request folder
but fails in the features folder and I think that has something to do
with the fact that Capybara does not do integration tests or to put it
another way ... you cannot get access to your controller using
Capybara ... that is just me speculating.
Thanks for having a look at this.
