Use the back button in Cucumber
In order to go back one page in your Cucumber tests, you can use the following step definition for Capybara:
CopyWhen(/^I go back$/) do visit page.driver.request.env['HTTP_REFERER'] end
If you're on Webrat, this should work:
CopyWhen(/^I go back$/) do visit request.env["HTTP_REFERER"]) end
An improved version of this step is now part of our gem spreewald on Github Archive .
