I am trying to test a Rails app using Michael Hartl's tutorial, but I am getting following error after typing bundle exec rspec spec/requests/static_pages_spec.rb (I am in the sample app directory)
static_pages_spec.rb:9: syntax error, unexpected ',', expecting ')' (SyntaxError)

My static_pages_spec.rb file is
require 'spec_helper'
describe "Static pages" do
describe "Home page" do
it "should have the content 'Sample App'" do
visit '/static_pages/home'
page.should have_selector ('h1', :text => 'Sample App')
end
it "should have the right title" do
visit '/static_pages/home'
page.should have_selector ('title',
:text => "Ruby on Rails Tutorial Sample App | Home")
end
end
describe "Help page" do
it "should have the content 'Help'" do
visit '/static_pages/help'
page.should have_selector('h1', :text => 'Help')
end
it "should have the right title" do
visit '/static_pages/help'
page.should have_selector ('title',
:text => "Ruby on Rails Tutorial Sample App | Help")
end
end
describe "About page" do
it "should have the content 'About Us'" do
visit '/static_pages/about'
page.should have_selector ('h1', :text => 'About Us')
end
it "should have the right title" do
visit '/static_pages/about'
page.should have_selector ('title',
:text => "Ruby on Rails Tutorial Sample App | About Us")
end
end
end
I have checked my test file with the tutorial screencast and it looks identical. What could be causing the RED failing test to work?
