Pass on click_link/click_button options to selenium RC
Reported by Niall Mullally | June 8th, 2010 @ 07:52 AM
I've run into problems with selenium tests timing out and it is often related to the page not being fully loaded. The Webrat technique of waiting for the target element to load, with a timeout of 5 seconds, isn't always reliable.
I have found explicitly telling selenium to wait for the page to fully load has eliminated the timeout issues I was having.
Rather than littering tests with 'selenium.wait_for_page_to_load', this patch updates Webrat::SeleniumSession's #click_link, #click_link_within and #click_button methods to pass on the options hash to the Selenium RC.
This allows for calls like click_link('My Link', :wait_for => :page) which is a bit more tidy.
Patch attached and also available on my fork @ http://github.com/Sidane/webrat/commit/10a56aaa80d7463ed4aff8b91497...
