Anyone using steak with Ruby 1.9.x?

[Luismi Cavallé]

Hey,

I'm working on making sure Steak works with Ruby 1.9.1 and 1.9.2. I've started by making its own specs pass, but I was wondering if anyone here have already use it in her own developments with Ruby 1.9.x and if there are any problems.

Cheers,

Hi!

I've been using it on a Rails 3 project with ruby-1.9.2-p0 without any problems at all...

Cheers!

The same for me, it works fine for me (just don't forget the annoying
magic comments in your specs and that's all)

I forgot that I had to patch rack-test when using Ruby 1.9.x, and a
multipart form and the data submited had some UTF-8 characters:

This is not about steak, but maybe useful I your are planning to do
some tests with capybara.

Hi Fernando,

I've been having some encoding issues using Steak and Capybara. The problem comes when I run the command, rspec spec/acceptance, as strings like "Añadir" doesn't show correctly, and it shows "Añadir" instead. If I run the server, with 'rails server' the string shows just fine, but not when testing.

I'm using Rails 3.0.4, Ruby 1.9.2, Capybara 0.4.1.2, and Steak 1.1.0. I've tried to place the code you provided on your last post in the acceptance_helper.rb file under spec/acceptance but doesn't seem to work either. Any advice on how to solve this issue?

Thanks.

I think this is a capybara issue you can solve by adding this meta tag to the head section of your html file:

<meta charset="utf-8" />

Thanks Luismi !! I can't believe that was the issue... I added the ecoding comment at the top of each file involved in that view, but I completely forgot about the view itself!
