2,963 Points2 failures when I run rspec
I have been stuck on the "first tests" video for over an hour and can't seem to figure out the issue.
Every time I run rspec, i get these two failures:
Failures:
1) Creating todo lists redirects to the todo list index page on success Failure/Error: click_button "Create Todo List" Capybara::ElementNotFound: Unable to find button "Create Todo List" # ./spec/features/todo_lists/create_spec.rb:12:in `block (2 levels) in <top (required)>'
2) Creating todo lists displays an error when the todo list has no title Failure/Error: click_button "Create Todo List" Capybara::ElementNotFound: Unable to find button "Create Todo List" # ./spec/features/todo_lists/create_spec.rb:27:in `block (2 levels) in <top (required)>'
Here's what my code looks like:
'' require 'spec_helper'
describe "Creating todo lists" do
it "redirects to the todo list index page on success" do
visit '/todo_lists'
click_link "New Todo List"
expect(page).to have_content ("New Todo List")
fill_in "Title", with: "My todo list"
fill_in "Description", with: "This is what I'm doing today"
click_button "Create Todo List"
expect(page).to have_content("My Todo list")
end
it "displays an error when the todo list has no title" do
expect(TodoList.count) .to eq(0)
visit '/todo_lists'
click_link "New Todo List"
expect(page).to have_content ("New Todo List")
fill_in "Title", with: ""
fill_in "Description", with: "This is what I'm doing today"
click_button "Create Todo List"
expect(page) .to have_content("error")
expect(TodoList.count) .to eq(0)
visit "/todo_lists"
expect(page).to_not have_content("This is what I'm doing today")
end
end ''

I think this does not work in case of a typo. try to change:
click_button "Create Todo List"
to
click_button "Create Todo list"
The string has to be exactly as on the button and you must change each appearance.
