capybara-firebug provides a dead-simple way to run Capybara-based Cucumber scenarios or RSpec request specs with Firebug enabled under the selenium driver. To use it in RSpec examples, `require 'capybara/firebug/rspec'` in spec_helper.rb, and tag the examples you need to debug with `:firebug => true`. To use it in Cucumber scenarios, `require 'capybara/firebug/cucumber'` in env.rb, and tag the scenarios you need to debug with `@firebug`. ## Firebug Versions By default, this gem uses Firebug 1.12.4, which is compatible with Firefox 23-25. If you want to use Firebug 1.7.3 (compatible with Firefox 3.6, 4, and 5), 1.9.2 (compatible with Firefox 6-13), 1.10.6 (compatible with Firefox 13-18), or 1.11.0 (compatible with Firefox 17-22), you need to explicitly specify the firebug_version setting in your `capybara.rb` support file: # located in features/support/capybara.rb or similar require 'capybara/firebug' Selenium::WebDriver::Firefox::Profile.firebug_version = '1.7.3' ## Customizing the Profile If you wish to further customize the Firefox profile used by selenium, you can use the `#enable_firebug` method to add the Firebug extension to it: profile = Selenium::WebDriver::Firefox::Profile.new profile.enable_firebug This can also be used to enable Firebug on a remote browser: Capybara::Driver::Selenium.new(app, :browser => :remote, :url => "http://my.ip.add.ress:4444/wd/hub", :desired_capabilities => Selenium::WebDriver::Remote::Capabilities.firefox(:firefox_profile => profile)) ## Upgrading from 1.x Cucumber and RSpec support has been split into separate files. You'll need to change spec_helper.rb to `require 'capybara/firebug/rspec'` or env.rb to `require 'capybara/firebug/cucumber'`. A "stop and let me debug" step definition is no longer provided. You can add it yourself if needed: ``` Then /^stop and let me debug$/ do debugger end ``` Ruby 1.8.x is no longer supported. Please upgrade to 2.0 or later.
