Uncheck check_box, just not working with rspec / capybara tests

I have a nested form that has 4 checkboxes. Everything currently works in the browser, but I cannot get the capybara tests to uncheck and save.

Using Rails 4.2.2 and the latest versions of capaybara-webkit and rspec

settings.html.erb

<%= f.fields_for :preferences do |f| %> <div class="email-notifications-holder"> <div class="email-holder"> <%= f.label :new_match, "Getting a new match each week" %> <%= f.check_box :new_match, class: "checkbox new_match_email" %> </div> <div class="email-holder"> <%= f.label :match_reminder, "New matches Thursday reminder", class: "match_reminder_email" %> <%= f.check_box :match_reminder, default: true, class: "checkbox" %> </div> <div class="email-holder"> <%= f.label :accepted_match, "A Glassbreakers accepted a match", class: "accepted_match_email" %> <%= f.check_box :accepted_match, default: true, class: "checkbox" %> </div> <div class="email-holder"> <%= f.label :new_message, "Received a new message", class: "new_message_email" %> <%= f.check_box :new_message, default: true, class: "checkbox" %> </div> </div> <% end %>

edit_account_spec.rb

  it "allows the user to opt out of new match email", :js do user = create(:user) preferences = create(:preference, user: user) sign_in(user) visit edit_user_path(user) click_tab(t("edit_user.tabs.settings")) find(:css, "#user_preferences_attributes_0_new_match").set(false) within "#button-container" do page.find('.save.main-save-button-edit').trigger('click') end visit edit_user_path(user) click_tab(t("edit_user.tabs.settings")) user.preferences.reload new_match_email_checkbox = find(".new_match_email") expect(new_match_email_checkbox.checked?).to be_falsey end

I tried to click it, unchecking it, checking it, clicking on it, wrapping it around the block, reloading db, etc.

  new_match_email_checkbox = find(".new_match_email") within(".email-notifications-holder") do page.uncheck('Getting a new match each week') end new_match_email_checkbox.set(false)

Right now, when you save the user profile, you should have saved the skills on board, otherwise it will give an error message when you try to click the save button.

user controller part

  def update if update_current_user?(user_params) redirect_to user_path(current_user) else flash["notice"] = "Please choose 3 industries, fields and years of experience." redirect_to edit_user_path(current_user) end end private def update_current_user?(update_params) skills_chosen?(update_params[:user_onboard_skills_attributes]) && current_user.update(update_params) end

Using save_and_open_page, the error message did not appear, so it was not clear what was going on. I managed to debug this by running the logs while the tests were running, using:

 tail -f log/test.log

Just using this, uncheck

  within(".email-notifications-holder") do page.uncheck('Getting a new match each week') end

But you need to take the item to check it.

 new_match_email_checkbox = find(".new_match_email") expect(new_match_email_checkbox.checked?).to be_falsey

Note: The only thing I do not understand. Are you trying to make this line work ?:

 find(:css, "#user_preferences_attributes_0_new_match").set(false)

or are you trying to uncheck after calling user.preferences.reload ?
