Dunno if the API changed, but according to http://gitrdoc.com/brynary/webrat/tree/master,

fills_in field, :with => value

should be

fill_in field, :with => value

I suspect the API to have changed since 2008…

@voice1983
“animals_path” is a method call to the the RESTful route GET /animals generated by rails. (as defined in routes.rb) The rails routing path and and url methods are also made available in the stories. To see a full list of available routes in this and other rails projects type “rake routes” at the project’s root dir. HTH

@Jay
Yeah, the spec command is only for rspec examples and not for stories. I should of mentioned that the ‘ruby’ command is the way to run the stories, thanks for pointing it out.

Yeah, um, don’t do that thing I did (deleting and recreating the two plugins). It’ll give you a weird “no implicit conversion” integer.

Instead, just know that you run stories with ruby stories/animals_without_webrat.rb, not spec stories/animals_without_webrat.rb.
