Rspec View Issue

[John]

Overview :

in my views i have a button(test) with action image.csv , when i am clicking( find_button('test').click) on that , it sending to controller image

Problem : 
It's not passing whole action to the server . so format option always getting html , not csv , in the test cases

please suggest me for the same

Can you paste your view code and your spec, without those it’s impossible to diagnose where you are going wrong. You also don’t mention what type of test this is which further complicates diagnosing the issue.

To Reproduce Issue :

Views Code 
= f.submit 'test', 'data-action' => 'images.csv'
= link_to "test1", images_path(format: "csv")

Rspec code :

Case 1: 
scenario 'Should get valid CSV files' do
click_button('test')
end
Case 2: 
scenario 'Should get valid CSV files' do
click_link('test1')
end

check the log files , in case 1 request Url is images

in case 2 request Url is images.csv

For the benefit of the people on the list part of the view code:

= f.submit 'test', 'data-action' => 'images.csv'
= link_to "test1", images_path(format: "csv")

Spec files:

scenario 'Should get valid CSV files' do
  click_button('test')
end

scenario 'Should get valid CSV files' do
  click_link('test1')
end

Looking at your code I’d suggest you check that `data-action` is actually being set on your page and not lost into Rails, I’m not sure Rails would recognise it passed in like that, you might have to add `html_options: { 'data-action' => 'images.csv’ }` additionally even if it is being passed in correctly theres still the possibility your JS is erroring.

This is my javascript code  

$('input[data-action]').click(function() {

    $('form#searchform').attr('action', $(this).data('action'));

  });

I’m not a jQuery expert but that doesn’t look like it will work, the form is already firing at this point so even if you have the right form, with the right attributes (you haven’t pasted your generated view so it’s impossible to tell) you possibly can’t mutate it. I *think* you need to change the action, submit the form yourself, and then return false from the original JS event.
