Capybara vs Cucumber<\/strong><\/h1>\n

\"capybara<\/p>\n

Let’s understand Capybara vs Cucumber. Capybara is a tool that interacts with a website the way a human would (like visiting a url, clicking a link, typing text into a form and submitting it). Certainly, it is useful\u00a0 to emulate a user’s flow through a website. With Capybara you can write something like this:<\/p>\n

describe “the signup process”, :type => :feature do<\/p>\n

before :each do<\/p>\n

User.make(:email => ‘user@example.com’, :password => ‘caplin’)<\/p>\n

end<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

it “signs me in” do<\/p>\n

visit ‘\/sessions\/new’<\/p>\n

within(“#session”) do<\/p>\n

fill_in ‘Login’, :with => ‘user@example.com’<\/p>\n

fill_in ‘Password’, :with => ‘password’<\/p>\n

end<\/p>\n

click_link ‘Sign in’<\/p>\n

page.should have_content ‘Success’<\/p>\n

end<\/p>\n

end<\/p>\n

Moreover, Capybara is an automated testing tool (often used) for ROR applications.<\/p>\n

Cucumber<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Cucumber is a BDD tool that expresses testing scenarios in a business-readable. It’s a domain-specific language. In addition, it is a general-purpose BDD tool. It knows nothing about web apps. So, Cucumber step definitions call Capybara in order to test web apps. Moreover, Cucumber is a tool to write human-readable tests that are mapped into code. With it, you can rewrite the above example like this:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Scenario: Signup process<\/p>\n

Given a user exists with email “user@example.com” and password “caplin”<\/p>\n

When I try to login with “user@example.com” and “caplin”<\/p>\n

Then I should be logged in successfully<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The almost plain-text interpretation is useful to pass around non-developers but also need some code mapped into it to actually work (the step definitions).<\/p>\n

Usually you will use Capybara if you testing a website and use Cucumber if you need to share those tests with non-developers. These two conditions are independent so you can use one without the other or both or none.<\/p>\n

In the code snippet there is some RSpec as well. This is needed because Cucumber or Capybara by themselves cannot test something. They rely on RSpec, Test::Unit or minitest to do the actual “Pass or Fail” work.<\/p>\n
