How do I find an image on a page with Cucumber / Capybara in Rails 3

Question

I am using Cucumber / Capybara with Rails 3 and am trying to validate the existence of an image after upload. I\'m not sure how to check the url of the image to validate it.

Answer 1

Does this work?

page.should have_xpath('//img[@src="/public/images/foo.png"]')

Answer 2

If you have a lot of images that you would like to test you could create a has_image? matcher for Capybara.

It is easy and this post explains it step-by-step: Adding a has_image? Matcher to Capybara
