Capybara: exception trace in log

Question

While running integration tests in capybara, having app raise an exception (500 error; is rendered in browser) there's no stack trace in test.log file. Here's the only line I see there:

Completed 500 Internal Server Error in 25ms

Am I missing something? How do I make stacktraces appear in test.log during integration testing?

Answer 1

Go examine your config/environments/test.rb to find the line:

config.action_dispatch.show_exceptions = false

And change it to true.

Unfortunately this didn't work for me, but the solution of using mongrel reported here did: #4628428 – Dottie

config.action_dispatch.show_exceptions = true by default on both test and development env! It is not working for me. – Hexa

This sounds like its for Rails >= 3. Anything for Rails 2? – Guileful

Answer 2

The selected answer did not work for me. I'm using Cucumber + Capybara + Rails.

This related answer helped me get the culprit error in the test.log file after running the Cucumber scenario.
