Cucumber with Capybara: How to unchoose a radio button

Can I unchoose a radio button like you uncheck a checkbox?

I'm running a test where I'm going down different "branches" of a survey and I've come across this need. Thanks.

Solution

  • While there doesn't appear to be an unchoose method in Capybara (which is curious given select & check both have corresponding "un" versions), given the code for choose, this should work:

    def unchoose(locator)
  msg = "cannot choose field, no radio button with id, name, or label '#{locator}' found"
  find(:xpath, XPath::HTML.radio_button(locator), :message => msg).set(false)
end
