Take the 2-minute tour ×  I'm using a table to represent a rota
and I want to use RSpec to test that the date is appearing:
describe "Checking the rota" do      let(:service){
FactoryGirl.create(:service)}     before{ visit root_path }
#this is where the rota is displayed     it{ should
have_selector('td', date: service.date) }   As far as I can tell
the application itself is working fine as the rota is displaying
perfectly when I visit the page myself. I'm curious as to why
the test is failing though. The factory script I'm using is:
factory :service do     date Date.today     leader "Bob"
singers "Mr T"     soundAM "Thor"     soundPM "Wobbles"  Finally
the stub I'm using to render the rota:  <% if(service.date <
Date.today) %>   <% service.destroy %> <% end %>
<td><%=link_to service.date, edit_service_path(service.id)
%></td>     <td><%= service.leader %></td>   Thanks for any help
in advance.  share|improve this question add comment  1 Answer
I think the right line is:  it{ should have_selector
