Expected output matches rendered output but still getting error in view spec

Hello all,

I’ve just gotten started using BDD with RSpec/Cucumber/Webrat and
Rails and I’ve run into some frustration trying to get my view spec to
pass.

First of all, I am running Ruby 1.9.1p129 with Rails 2.3.2, RSpec and
RSpec-Rails 1.2.6, Cucumber 0.3.11, and Webrat 0.4.4.

Here is the code relevant to my question

config/routes.rb:

map.b_posts                  'backend/posts',
                                      :controller => 'backend/

posts’,
:action => ‘backend_index’,
:conditions => { :method
=> :get }

map.connect                  'backend/posts',
                                      :controller => 'backend/

posts’,
:action => ‘create’,
:conditions => { :method
=> :post }

views/backend/posts/create.html.erb:

<% form_tag do %>
<% end %>

spec/views/backend/posts/create.html.erb_spec.rb:

describe "backend/posts/create.html.erb" do
  it "should render a form to create a post" do
    render "backend/posts/create.html.erb"
    response.should have_selector("form", :method =>

‘post’, :action => b_posts_path) do |form|
# Nothing here yet.
end
end
end

Here is the relevant part of the output when I run script/spec:

‘backend/posts/create.html.erb should render a form to create a post’
FAILED
expected following output to contain a tag:

It would appear to me that what have_selector is looking for is
exactly what the template generates, yet the example still fails. I am
very much looking forward to seeing my error (because I have a feeling
it is my error). Any help is much appreciated!

That failure message is coming from webrat, and I’m not sure what’s
really going wrong there. I’d recommend posting to the webrat group:
