Ambiguous match within

[Martin]

Hi,

I have a step that uses 'within' to scope the selector. But
unfortunately it causes an ambiguous match between the 'within' step
defined in web_steps.rb and the one I´m adding.
If I run cucumber with --guess, it´s all good. How can I use within in
my step without having ambiguous matches?

Then /^the "([^"]*)" radio button(?: within (.*))? should be chosen$/
do |locator, parent|
with_scope(parent) do
find_field(locator)['checked'].should be_true
end
end




And the "everyone" radio button within ".discussions" should be
chosen # features/groups/
create_new_group.feature:96
Ambiguous match of "the "everyone" radio button within
".discussions" should be chosen":

features/step_definitions/web_steps.rb:21:in `/^(.*) within ([^:]
+)$/'
features/step_definitions/web_steps_custom.rb:27:in `/^the
"([^"]*)" radio button(?: within (.*))? should be chosen$/'

You can run again with --guess to make Cucumber be more smart
about it
(Cucumber::Ambiguous)
features/groups/create_new_group.feature:96:in `And the
"everyone" radio button within ".discussions" should be chosen'





Then /^the "([^"]*)" radio button(?: within (.*))? should be chosen$/
do |locator, parent|
with_scope(parent) do
find_field(locator)['checked'].should be_true
end
end


Cheers,
Martin

Are you using a different implementation of within? within is already defined in web steps so either you use that or just don;t addthe within clause in your custom definition anymore? 

   And the "everyone" radio button within ".discussions" should be
chosen                             # features/groups/
create_new_group.feature:96
     Ambiguous match of "the "everyone" radio button within
".discussions" should be chosen":

     features/step_definitions/web_steps.rb:21:in `/^(.*) within ([^:]
+)$/'
     features/step_definitions/web_steps_custom.rb:27:in `/^the
"([^"]*)" radio button(?: within (.*))? should be chosen$/'

Cucumber is matching regular expressions, there are (at least) two ways to make your step unique

1) Delete the step in web steps
2) Change the language of your step definition

2) is probably easier to do, and also means you can write a step that reads a little better. There is a reasonable argument to say that things like radio buttons should not be mentioned at all in features - they are an implementation detail not a business requirement. So you could create a step

  And everyone should be in the discussion

and then create similar steps for the other states

  And only my friends should be in the discussion
