Test just hangs when I call page.driver .render (using phantomjs, capybara and poltgergeist)

I'm getting frustrated with this issue.. I have a Test::Unit test.. using Capybara + Poltergeist + PhantomJS.. trying to take a screenshot..

But when I call it.. 

        page.driver.render "screenshot.png"

It just hangs..

Any ideas? Thanks!

Solution

  • After all, I had to go with just the Selenium Web driver, and these specific versions, it seems they are out of sync at some point and capybara/its wrapper won't be able to communicate with the driver underneath and therefore Phantom, as a consequence, is not accessible.

    This configuration worked for me:

    gem 'capybara', '1.1.4'

    gem 'selenium-webdriver', '2.27.2'
