MinitestScreenshotReporter

Minitest reporter that automatically creates a screenshot on error or failure during capybara webtests. It works both in visible browser tests, as well as with headless tests.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

group :test do
  gem 'minitest-reporters'   
  gem 'minitest-screenshot-reporter'
  gem 'capybara'           # dsl for browser tests
  gem 'selenium-webdriver' # use real browser for webtests
  gem 'poltergeist'        # headless tests with phantom.js
end

And then execute:

$ bundle

Usage

Use as any other minitest reporter with `Minitest::Reporters.use!

Example: Add following to your test_helper.rb:

require 'minitest/reporters'
require 'minitest/reporters/screenshot_reporter'
Minitest::Reporters.use! [Minitest::Reporters::SpecReporter.new,
                          Minitest::Reporters::ScreenshotReporter.new]

Run your tests, and if there are errors or failures in your integration tests, check the directory test/screenshots.

You can also include the Minitest::Reporters::Screenshot module to your integration test class. Than you can use the method screenshot(name) to explicitly create additional screenshots in test/screenshots in your integration tests.

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake test to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.
