Can't select checkbox using id in Capybara

Question

There is the following RSpec code:

describe 'with valid information' do
    it 'should create a new restaurant' do
      visit new_restaurant_path

    fill_in I18n.translate(:name),          with: "Some restaurant"
      fill_in I18n.translate(:address),       with: "Some address of the restaurant"
      fill_in I18n.translate(:average_check), with: 100

    check('place_restaurant_food_types_1')

    expect { click_button :submit }.to change(Restaurant, :count).by(1)
    end
end

But I always get error "cannot check field, no checkbox with id, name, or label 'place_restaurant_food_types_1' found". I tried to replace id for name, but it was still the same. I'm absolutely sure that there is the item with needed id! (I copied it from the page source). How can I fix it?

HTML:

Answer 1

You could just use

check("place_restaurant_food_types_1")

as shown in the docs:

The check box can be found via name, id or label text.

Answer 2

Try By Xpath like this

find(:xpath, "//*[@id='place_restaurant_food_types_1']").click

Answer 3

You can use like this

find(:css,"input[id='place_restaurant_food_types_1']").set true
