Rspec test should pass but fails

Question

I have this test from michael hartl book:

require \'spec_helper\'
  describe \"Static pages\" do
    let(:base_title) { \"Ruby on Rails Tutorial Sample App\"         


        

Answer 1

Make sure you're using capybara 1.1.2 in your Gemfile. Starting from 2.0 capybara does not works for title testing (https://github.com/jnicklas/capybara/issues/844)

...
group :test do
  gem 'capybara', '1.1.2'
end
