I have a test Feature failing because the moment it runs some HTML elements (<li data-podcast>) not yet rendered.

Does anyone know how to fix it?

RSpec.describe 'Podcasts List', type: :feature do
  scenario 'A user visits the root page and views a podcasts list' do
    visit '/'

    within '[data-podcasts]' do
      expect(page).to have_selector 'li[data-podcast]', minimum: 3
    end
  end
end

  • Are rendered via JS?

  • @Luizcarvalho no, an instance variable is populated with all db files (@podcasts = Podcast.all) and then do a each listing all of them (@podcasts.all.each do ..).

Solved.

When we run our tests, the test database is accessed, not the development database. The solution was to instantiate all objects that were used in the Feature test:

FactoryGirl.create_list(:podcast, 3)
