current_url does not reflect redirects in a Mechanize session

Created 4 months ago by sandro | edit
When I visit a protected page within a mechanize session and it redirects me to the sign in page, the current_url still points to the protected url, not the url of the redirect. I assume this happens because mechanize follows redirects by default.

A possible solution:

module Webrat
  class MechanizeSession
    def current_url
      response.uri.to_s
    end
  end

  class Session
    def current_url
      if @adapter.respond_to?(:current_url)
        @adapter.current_url
      else
        @current_url
      end
    end
  end
end

It works, but with "class MechanizeAdapter". instead of "class MechanizeSession"
