Please clean up your formatting and add an explicit question. — Jesper
do you have authentication setup? first try disabling the authentication requirement for your banks controller and if that works then add the authentication back and put a before_action: in your spec. — Kinjal Dixit
Yeah i have authentication setup i tried that but its not working again the same error. — saurabhdexter

Try expect(page).to have_content()
Are you sure you can see a input with attribute name="Bank Name" in your current test page. Suggest that you write visit some_path to go to the webpage you test before do the operation.

I am trying to run the Rspec request command but when i run the command rake spec:requests it is throwing me the error
