capybara-webkit has various development dependencies which can be a little cumbersome to manage. With vagrant they can all be nicely bundled up in a VM and installed automatically.

We love pull requests. Here's a quick guide:
Dependencies
Some of the tests depend on the identify command that comes with Imagemagick.
Imagemagick can be installed via homebrew on
Mac OS X:
brew install imagemagick
If you prefer, you can use a Vagrant virtual machine. The Vagrantfile in the capybara-webkit repository will get you up and running with all the development dependencies:
gem install vagrant
vagrant up
vagrant ssh
cd /vagrant
rake
Contributing
-
Fork the repo.
-
Run the tests. We only take pull requests with passing tests, and it's great to know that you have a clean slate:
bundle && bundle exec rake -
Add a test for your change. Only refactoring and documentation changes require no new tests. If you are adding functionality or fixing a bug, we need a test!
-
Make the test pass.
-
Push to your fork and submit a pull request.
At this point you're waiting on us. We like to at least comment on, if not accept, pull requests within three business days (and, typically, one business day). We may suggest some changes or improvements or alternatives.
Some things that will increase the chance that your pull request is accepted, taken straight from the Ruby on Rails guide:
- Use Rails idioms and helpers
- Include tests that fail without your code, and pass with it
- Update the documentation, the surrounding one, examples elsewhere, guides, whatever is affected by your contribution
Syntax:
- Two spaces, no tabs.
- No trailing whitespace. Blank lines should not have any space.
- Prefer &&/|| over and/or.
- MyClass.my_method(my_arg) not my_method( my_arg ) or my_method my_arg.
- a = b and not a=b.
- Follow the conventions you see used in the source already.
And in case we didn't emphasize it enough: we love tests!
