Overview

A Base represents either an element on a page through the subclass Element or a document through Document.

Both types of Node share the same methods, used for interacting with the elements on the page. These methods are divided into three categories, finders, actions and matchers. These are found in the modules Finders, Actions and Matchers respectively.

A Session exposes all methods from Document directly:

session = Capybara::Session.new(:rack_test, my_app)
session.visit('/')
session.fill_in('Foo', :with => 'Bar')    # from Capybara::Node::Actions
bar = session.find('#bar')                # from Capybara::Node::Finders
bar.select('Baz', :from => 'Quox')        # from Capybara::Node::Actions
session.has_css?('#foobar')               # from Capybara::Node::Matchers
