Capybara 'within' method not recognized in RSpec

[David Zhang]

This is my spec_helper.rb file:

# This file is copied to spec/ when you run 'rails generate rspec:install'

ENV["RAILS_ENV"] ||= 'test'

require File.expand_path("../../config/environment", __FILE__)

require 'rspec/rails'

require 'capybara/rspec' # doesn't work...<=================

# Requires supporting ruby files with custom matchers and macros, etc,

# in spec/support/ and its subdirectories.

Dir[Rails.root.join("spec/support/**/*.rb")].each {|f| require f}

RSpec.configure do |config|

  # == Mock Framework

  #

  # If you prefer to use mocha, flexmock or RR, uncomment the appropriate line:

  #

  # config.mock_with :mocha

  # config.mock_with :flexmock

  # config.mock_with :rr

  config.mock_with :rspec

  # Remove this line if you're not using ActiveRecord or ActiveRecord fixtures

  config.fixture_path = "#{::Rails.root}/spec/fixtures"

  # If you're not using ActiveRecord, or you'd prefer not to run each of your

  # examples within a transaction, remove the following line or assign false

  # instead of true.

  config.use_transactional_fixtures = true

end

Oddly, although I followed the instruction on the github page, this fails:

it "shows a list of all organizations" do

    render

    within("ul#organization_list") do

      rendered.should have_selector("li.sort")

    end   

 end

with this error:

1) superadmin/organizations/index.html.erb shows a list of all organizations

     Failure/Error: within("ul#organization_list") do

     NoMethodError:

       undefined method `within' for #<RSpec::Core::ExampleGroup::Nested_1:0x00000105949ef8>

Why might that be?  I'm using Rails 3.1rc4, and my Gemfile should be all set:

source 'http://rubygems.org'

gem 'rails', '3.1.0.rc4' # using ruby 1.9.2p180

gem 'mysql2' # using mysql db

gem 'authlogic' # smart user authentication

gem 'dynamic_form' # easy error messages for forms

# Asset template engines

gem 'sass-rails', "~> 3.1.0.rc"

gem 'coffee-script'

gem 'uglifier' # compresses JS code for production

gem 'jquery-rails'

group :test do

# helpers

gem 'factory_girl_rails'

gem 'forgery'

gem 'database_cleaner'

# core testing frameworks

gem 'rspec-rails', '>= 2.6.1'

gem 'cucumber-rails', '>= 1.0.0'

gem 'capybara', '>= 1.0.0'

  # Pretty printed test output

  gem 'turn', :require => false

end

# Use unicorn as the web server

# gem 'unicorn'

# Deploy with Capistrano

# gem 'capistrano'

# To use debugger

# gem 'ruby-debug19', :require => 'ruby-debug'

I think you may be missing an additional

    require 'capybara/rails'

here.
