New API for minitest-capybara

[Wojtek Mach]

Hey guys,

I was working on the new API for minitest-capybara and I'm looking for some feedback. Basically I want to add better support for assert_* style testing.

Example:

    visit "/"

    assert_content "Homepage"
    page.must_have_content "Homepage"

    within ".login" do
      assert_no_content "Signed in as"
      page.must_have_no_content "Signed in as"
    end

    assert_link "Sign in"
    assert_link find(".login"), "Sign in"
    find(".login").must_have_link("Sign in")

    assert_selector 'li:first', text: "Item 1"
    page.must_have_selector 'li:first', text: "Item 1"

Also, it removes dependency of minitest-matchers.

- PR: https://github.com/wojtekmach/minitest-capybara/pull/2

Thanks!

I've also been thinking about moving away from Cabybara's matchers and creating assertions and expectations instead. I would prefer to not load minitest-matchers as well. How can we help?

The code is already there so feel free to comment on the PR. What's more important is not to break your tests so it'd be cool if you could try this out in your apps.

Hi Mike;

In trying to sort through the github history of minitest-rails-capybara, I see that in the past you've brought minitest-matchers into minitest-rails-capybara. I'm wondering why you are considering moving away from them now? 

Could you elaborate on what you feel tends to be the advantage of using assertions and expectations over matchers? 

Thanks,

Tim
