To verify the number of records using Capybara, you can use the following steps:

  1. Use Capybara to visit the page where the records are displayed.
  2. Use Capybara to locate the elements that represent the records on the page. This could be a table, list, or any other HTML structure where the records are displayed.
  3. Use Capybara to count the number of elements that represent the records on the page.
  4. Assert that the count of the elements matches the expected number of records.


Here's an example using Capybara and RSpec to verify the number of records in a table:

 1
 2
 3
 4
 5
 6
 7
 8
 9
10
11
# Visit the page where the records are displayed
visit '/records'

# Locate the table element containing the records
records_table = find('table#records-table')

# Count the number of rows in the table
number_of_records = records_table.all('tr').size

# Assert that the number of records matches the expected count
expect(number_of_records).to eq(expected_number_of_records)


In this example, we first visit the page where the records are displayed, then locate the table element containing the records, count the number of rows in the table, and finally assert that the count of records matches the expected number of records.
