Qt Dependency
-------------
2011-08-28 00:35:58 +00:00
capybara-webkit depends on a WebKit implementation from Qt, a cross-platform
development toolkit. You'll need to download the Qt libraries to build and
install the gem. You can find instructions for downloading and installing QT on
the [capybara-webkit wiki](https://github.com/thoughtbot/capybara-webkit/wiki/Installing-QT)

On Linux platforms, capybara-webkit requires an X server to run, although it doesn't create any visible windows. Xvfb works fine for this. You can setup Xvfb yourself and set a DISPLAY variable, or try out the [headless gem](https://github.com/leonid-shevtsov/headless).

-----
Add the capybara-webkit gem to your Gemfile:

Set your Capybara Javascript driver to webkit:

Tag scenarios with @javascript to run them using a headless WebKit browser.
