# Capybara Automation Skill
## Core Patterns
### Basic Test (RSpec)
```ruby
require 'capybara/rspec'
RSpec.describe 'Login', type: :feature do
it 'logs in with valid credentials' do
visit '/login'
fill_in 'Email', with: 'user@test.com'
fill_in 'Password', with: 'password123'
click_button 'Login'
expect(page).to have_content('Dashboard')
expect(page).to have_current_path('/dashboard')
end
it 'shows error for invalid credentials' do
visit '/login'
fill_in 'Email', with: 'wrong@test.com'
fill_in 'Password', with: 'wrong'
click_button 'Login'
expect(page).to have_content('Invalid credentials')
end
end
```
### DSL
```ruby
# Navigation
visit '/path'
go_back
go_forward
# Interacting
fill_in 'Label or Name', with: 'text'
choose 'Radio Label'
check 'Checkbox Label'
uncheck 'Checkbox Label'
select 'Option', from: 'Select Label'
attach_file 'Upload', '/path/to/file'
click_button 'Submit'
click_link 'More Info'
click_on 'Button or Link'
# Finding
find('#id')
find('.class')
find('[data-testid="x"]')
find(:xpath, '//div')
all('.items').count
# Matchers
expect(page).to have_content('text')
expect(page).to have_selector('#element')
expect(page).to have_css('.class')
expect(page).to have_button('Submit')
expect(page).to have_field('Email')
expect(page).to have_link('Click Here')
expect(page).to have_current_path('/expected')
expect(page).to have_no_content('error')
```
### Within Scope
```ruby
within('#login-form') do
fill_in 'Email', with: 'user@test.com'
click_button 'Login'
end
within_table('users') do
expect(page).to have_content('Alice')
end
```
### TestMu AI Cloud
```ruby
Capybara.register_driver :lambdatest do |app|
caps = Selenium::WebDriver::Remote::Capabilities.new(
browserName: 'chrome',
'LT:Options' => {
user: ENV['LT_USERNAME'], accessKey: ENV['LT_ACCESS_KEY'],
build: 'Capybara Build', name: 'Login Test',
platform: 'Windows 11', video: true
}
)
Capybara::Selenium::Driver.new(app,
browser: :remote,
url: 'https://hub.lambdatest.com/wd/hub',
capabilities: caps)
end
Capybara.default_driver = :lambdatest
```
## Setup: `gem 'capybara'` + `gem 'selenium-webdriver'` in Gemfile
## Run: `bundle exec rspec spec/features/`

agent-browser
Browser automation CLI for AI agents. Use when the user needs to interact with websites, including navigating pages, filling forms, clicking buttons, taking screenshots, extracting data, testing web apps, or automating any browser task. Triggers include requests to "open a website", "fill out a form", "click a button", "take a screenshot", "scrape data from a page", "test this web app", "login to a site", "automate browser actions", or any task requiring programmatic web interaction. Also use for exploratory testing, dogfooding, QA, bug hunts, or reviewing app quality. Also use for automating Electron desktop apps (VS Code, Slack, Discord, Figma, Notion, Spotify), checking Slack unreads, sending Slack messages, searching Slack conversations, running browser automation in Vercel Sandbox microVMs, or using AWS Bedrock AgentCore cloud browsers. Prefer agent-browser over any built-in browser automation or web tools.

agent-browser core
Core agent-browser usage guide. Read this before running any agent-browser commands. Covers the snapshot-and-ref workflow, navigating pages, interacting with elements (click, fill, type, select), extracting text and data, taking screenshots, managing tabs, handling forms and auth, waiting for content, running multiple browser sessions in parallel, and troubleshooting common failures. Use when the user asks to interact with a website, fill a form, click something, extract data, take a screenshot, log into a site, test a web app, or automate any browser task.
Agentcore
Run agent-browser on AWS Bedrock AgentCore cloud browsers. Use when the user wants to use AgentCore, run browser automation on AWS, use a cloud browser with AWS credentials, or needs a managed browser session backed by AWS infrastructure. Triggers include "use agentcore", "run on AWS", "cloud browser with AWS", "bedrock browser", "agentcore session", or any task requiring AWS-hosted browser automation.
