Thanks David, I have something like that: When /user named "(.*)" logs in/ do |name| # assumes that the user given exists of course visits root_path UserSession.find.destroy if UserSession.find Then "enter the username \"#{name}\"" Then "enter the password \"#{name}-password\"" Then "press the login button" Then "welcome message" end But this seems needlessly expensive given that the entire application is secured. Is there no way of preserving a login session for any arbitrary period across both features and scenario? Is there a technical or philosophical reason why this is not so? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. _______________________________________________ rspec-users mailing list rspec-users@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/rspec-users
