capybara-webkit is hanging on requests like ‘http://localhost/#/posts/new’

Hi, everyone!

if someone will have issue with hanging browser on steps like

visit "http://localhost/#/posts/new"

You can replace this steps with the next following code and it works for me in capybara-webkit 0.8.0

def visit_script url
  page.execute_script("window.location = '#{url}'")
end

poltergeist

Some days ago I’ve got task to test our offline application with cucumber scenarios.

It was very difficult to do it because in our project we are using capybara-webkit and unfortunately it doesn’t support html5 a lot of features in this webkit server implementation. After digging into forks of capybara-webkit I found one fork with html5 support features via custom ‘set_attribute’ for browser:

page.driver.browser.set_attribute("LocalStorageEnabled", true)

I’ve made merge with master of capybara-webkit in my own fork and then we’ve started to use this fork. But then I found another problem connecting with routing through the application using backbone routers concept with ‘#’ in the routes.

It looks like:

http://localhost/#/posts
http://localhost/#/posts/new

When I tried to visit this links webkit_server was always hanging without throwing messages by timeout. It makes me upset and I’ve decided to replace capybara-webkit driver at all.

I am trying to use poltergeist
