    <p>I am trying to run a simple google search test in the headless mode using Capybara-webkit.</p> <p>I have set the drivers as in env.rb file:</p> <pre><code>Capybara.default_driver = :webkit Capybara.current_driver = :webkit Capybara.javascript_driver = :webkit </code></pre> <p>And the feature file has a simple scenario outline which searches for a input and verifies whether the result contains the expected output:</p> <pre><code> Given User opens the google page When she searches for "&lt;input&gt;" Then verify that the result has "&lt;output&gt;" Examples: |input | output | |Agile Samurai author name|Jonathan Rasmusson| |Eloquent Ruby author name|Russ Olsen | </code></pre> <p>In the step definition, the google page is visited and the input is entered into the text box and the search button is clicked.</p> <pre><code>Given /^User opens the google page$/ do visit "http://google.com" end When /^she searches for "(.*?)"$/ do |search_query| fill_in "gbqfq", :with =&gt; search_query click_button "gbqfba" end Then /^verify that the result has "(.*?)"$/ do |output| should have_content output end </code></pre> <p>When I run these tests, I get the error:</p> <blockquote> <p>Unable to find field "gbqfq" (Capybara::ElementNotFound)</p> </blockquote> <p>But, if I change the driver to selenium:</p> <pre><code>Capybara.default_driver = :selenium Capybara.current_driver = :selenium Capybara.javascript_driver = :selenium </code></pre> <p>then, the tests run and all the steps pass.</p> <p>In the headless mode, are the elements found in some other way? Is my approach wrong? I am unable to understand why the element is not found in the headless mode when it works fine in the browser mode (that opens firefox instance).</p> <p>I am a novice in this field, so any help will be deeply appreciated. Thank you in advance.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
