Capybara: How to find the focused element

Capybara allows you to filter elements that are focused.

page.find(:fillable_field, focused: true) # Filtering only fillable inputs for performance reasons
page.find(:xpath, '//*', focused: true) # Filter all fields

Legacy approach

In older version, it was possible to use the :focus pseudo-class. This seems not to work in newer versions anymore.

find(':focus')
