I found the answer to my own question. Just needed to use image_path

response.should have_selector("#logo", :src => image_path("logo.jpg"))

I'd have thought there's a marginal risk (if your page renders slowly in the test, for example) that the timestamp might change between rendering the page and running this assertion. Another other way is to use a looser CSS selector, something like

response.should have_selector("#logo[src*=logo.jpg]")

I can't quite remember the syntax, but the idea is to search for a tag whose src attributes *begins with* 'logo.jpg', thereby ignoring the timestamp entirely.

when I run the following matcher bellow it fails because rails adds
the timestamp after the file name. I've looked around but have not
found anyone else having this problem. I am new to rails and rspec so
maybe I am completely missing something obvious.

 response.should have_selector("#logo", :src => "/images/logo.jpg")
