How to use fill_in with find in Capybara (if possi

2019-01-16 11:06发布

问题:

I'd like to do the following but can't due to the nature of fill_in expecting a locator as the first argument.

find(:css, "input[id$='donation_pledge_hundreds']").fill_in :with => "10"

I've also tried doing

element = find(:css, "input[id$='donation_pledge_hundreds']")   
fill_in element.<method> , :with => "10"

but there are no methods that return any data to identify the element to fill_in.

Any ideas of the best way of finding a field via a regex for use with fill_in?

回答1:

Going from memory so may not be 100% correct, but I think if you have a reference to the element itself you'd use set instead of fill_in:

find(:css, "input[id$='donation_pledge_hundreds']").set("10")

However for your specific example, fill_in should be able to find the element as you know it's ID:

fill_in 'donation_pledge_hundreds', with: "10"


回答2:

Instead of a method, you can use brackets to return :name or :id, e.g. element = find(:css, "input[id$='donation_pledge_hundreds']") fill_in element[:name], :with => "10" The same approach can be used with select - select my_type, from: find('select[name$="[type]"]')[:name]



回答3:

find("input[id$='donation_pledge_hundreds']").set "10"

It's worth noting that you can chain your finds.

@modal = find(".modal")
@modal.find('input[name=foo]').set "bar"


回答4:

fill_in <$id>, :with => 'text you want to fill in'
