GhostPictures

GhostPictures provides the feature to wait for Ajax requests with Capybara.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'ghost_pictures', group: :test

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install ghost_pictures

# config/environments/test.rb
config.middleware.use GhostPictures::Capture

GhostPictures.wait_for { click_link "get data via Ajax" }

# Wait for a request with "/users"
GhostPictures.wait_for("/users") { click_link }

# Wait for a POST request with "/users"
GhostPictures.wait_for("/users", method: :post) { click_link }

# Wait for two requests
GhostPictures.wait_for(nil, count: 2) do
  2.times { click_link }
end

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
