michael hartl 3rd edition 5.26 test failure site_layout test showing no about path

Question

I'm following along through the tutorial and my site links work, but the only site_layout link test that doesn't pass is /about path. I checked over my routes file, footer file and site_layout_test and can't seem to find whats wrong

     1) Failure:
     SiteLayoutTest#test_layout_links        [/home/ubuntu/workspace/sample_app/test/integration/site_layout_test.rb:10]:
Expected at least 1 element matching "a[href="/about"]", found 0..
Expected 0 to be >= 1.

    Rails.application.routes.draw do
       root 'static_pages#home'

       get 'help' => 'static_pages#help'

       get 'about' => 'static_pages#about'

       get 'contact' => 'static_pages#contact'

require 'test_helper'

class SiteLayoutTest < ActionDispatch::IntegrationTest

test "layout links" do
  get root_path
  assert_template 'static_pages/home'
  assert_select "a[href=?]", root_path, count: 2
  assert_select "a[href=?]", help_path
  assert_select "a[href=?]", about_path
  assert_select "a[href=?]", contact_path
end

Answer 1

This seems to be a bug that common bug with the cloud 9 ide. I double checked every view file and my integration tests find 3 links to root_path when there are only 2. If you run the tests on your a local app inside your local rails console, they work. c9's console is not correct.

Answer 2

I just checked the tutorial and found that if you remove "count: 2" from site_layout_test.rb test would pass.Place this in your " /home/ubuntu/workspace/sample_app/test/integration/site_layout_test.rb" require 'test_helper'

class SiteLayoutTest < ActionDispatch::IntegrationTest

test "layout links" do
 get root_path
assert_template 'static_pages/home'
assert_select "a[href=?]", root_path
assert_select "a[href=?]", help_path
assert_select "a[href=?]", about_path
assert_select "a[href=?]", contact_path
end

Answer 3

Just to be sure... You didn't say you checked your view file (about.html.erb), with the code: <% provide(:title, "About") %> Maybe something misspelled in the title here? Caps/lowercase?
