Failure on all Rspec Assertions

[mark lane]

When running the first x3 scenarios my Rspec assertions don't seem to be working. I can't work out why! Please could somebody assist. I would be eternally grateful!

The errors are as follows:

1.

my steps for this is..

Then I should see "Thank you for adopting a puppy!"

Then(/^I should see "([^"]*)"$/) do |expected|
  expect.(@broswer.text).to include expected
end

get these errors

ArgumentError: You must pass either an argument or a block to `expect`.

./features/step_definitions/adopting_puppy_steps.rb:40:in `/^I should see "([^"]*)"$/'

./features/adopting_puppies.feature:18:in `Then I should see "Thank you for adopting a puppy!"'

ArgumentError: You must pass either an argument or a block to `expect`.

./features/step_definitions/adopting_puppy_steps.rb:40:in `/^I should see "([^"]*)"$/'

./features/adopting_puppies.feature:32:in `Then I should see "Thank you for adopting a puppy!"'

2.my steps are

And I should see "$34.95" as the subtotal for line item 1
And I should see "$34.95" as the cart total

And(/^I should see "\$34\.95" as the subtotal for line item (\d+)$/) do |subtotal, line_item|
  row = (line_item.to_i - 1) * 6
  expect(@browser.table(:index => 0)[row][3].text).to eql subtotal
end

error
Cucumber::ArityMismatchError: Your block takes 2 arguments, but the Regexp matched 1 argument.
features/step_definitions/adopting_puppy_steps.rb:59:in `/^I should see "\$34\.95" as the subtotal for line item (\d+)$/'
./features/adopting_puppies.feature:39:in `And I should see "$34.95" as the subtotal for line item 1'

The problem is trailing dot after expect. Should be like this:

expect(@broswer.text).to include expected

Thanks a lot. I was pulling my hair out ! :)

Do you have a view on the second issue? it seems like it it is expected x2 parameters but is only getting one although x2 are mentioned?

Cucumber::ArityMismatchError: Your block takes 2 arguments, but the Regexp matched 1 argument.

You have to put subtotal into parenthesis, for example:

^I should see ("\$34\.95") as the subtotal for line item (\d+)$

I will try both of these tonight when I get home. Thank you so much for your help

[mark lane]

I tried and both answers you said were great (thanks again) but now I am getting

NoMethodError: undefined method `text' for nil:NilClass

./features/step_definitions/adopting_puppy_steps.rb:40:in `/^I should see "([^"]*)"$/'

./features/adopting_puppies.feature:18:in `Then I should see "Thank you for adopting a puppy!"'

Feature = Then I should see "Thank you for adopting a puppy!"

Line 40 =

Then(/^I should see "([^"]*)"$/) do |expected|

  expect(@broswer.text).to include expected
end

It looks to me as if you've spelt @browser incorrectly, which why you're getting the NoMethodError for text.

[mark lane]

ah great thanks. new error though...

I checked the page and it definitely puts the correct text up..

It would appear your test isn't completing the adoption process, otherwise you'd see 

"Home of the Happy Puppy

Home of the Happy Puppy

Thank you for adopting a puppy!

Hi 

Thanks for your reply. I have watched the script and it brings up the page with the text on it but it doesn't seem to see it..I can't work it out!

[mark lane]

I've checked this again tonight and it seems the page is closed very quickly. Any ideas maybe to debug this. I'm am using ruby mine. Does it have this ability?

Hi Mark

You may want to look at using a wait_until as described here: https://github.com/cheezy/page-object/wiki/Ajax-Calls

With regards to RubyMine you can set a breakpoint against the line of code you want to inspect and then click on the small green bug icon rather than the play button and it should stop at that point.
