Hi James, If you're using the generated common_webrat steps that cucumber generates for Rails projects, then "I select X from Y" should work just fine. The step itself calls Webrat's select method like so: selects(value, :from => field).
You can see an example of sorts in the first comments here: http://www.benmabey.com/2008/02/04/rspec-plain-text-stories-webrat-chunky-bacon/ HTH, Mike On Thu, Nov 13, 2008 at 2:02 PM, James B.
