    <p>I am learning Cucumber and Webrat with Rails and would like some advice on the best way to test an "edit" form. When I browse to a user's profile I am presented with an edit form with the user's information pre-populated in the form fields. I would like to be able to test that the fields do in fact contain the information I expect. Here's my scenario:</p> <pre><code> Scenario: View My Profile Given I am logged in as "Mike" with password "secret" When I go to my profile page Then I should see "Mike" in the "Login" field And I should see "mike@email.com" in the "Email" field And I should see a blank "Password" field And I should see a blank "Password confirmation" field </code></pre> <p>Cucumber tells me, correctly, that I need to define the following custom steps:</p> <pre><code>Then /^I should see "([^\"]*)" in the "([^\"]*)" field$/ do |arg1, arg2| pending end Then /^I should see a blank "([^\"]*)" field$/ do |arg1| pending end </code></pre> <p>I'm sure I can figure out some nasty regex to implement evaluating these steps, but I feel there must be something already existing or more elegant that I can do. How do you evaluate forms with data pre-populated in the form fields?</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.
