RoR and Rspec setting up a test using a while loop - ruby-on-rails

Question

Ok so I want to create a test for checking that all pages have a certain title. However I thought it would be nice if I could include the page titles in an array so that I wouldn't have to duplicate the block for each page. And it would allow me to test additional pages by just modifying the pages array.
The issue I am having is that the page variable is not being interpolated in the test. So is this a syntax error or does Rspec not allow interpolation within the it should do... block?
describe "LayoutLinks" do
page = ["home", "contact", "about", "help"]
i = page.count
x = 0
while x < i
it "should have a #{page[x]} page" do
get "#{page[x]}"
response.should have_selector("title", :content => "#{page[x]}")
end
x += 1
end
end
Test shows the following failures:
1) PagesController LayoutLinks should have a help page
Failure/Error: get "#{page[x]}"
ActionController::RoutingError:
No route matches {:controller=>"pages", :action=>""}
# ./spec/controllers/layout_links_spec.rb:14:in `block (3 levels) in <top (required)>'
2) PagesController LayoutLinks should have a contact page
Failure/Error: get "#{page[x]}"
ActionController::RoutingError:
No route matches {:controller=>"pages", :action=>""}
# ./spec/controllers/layout_links_spec.rb:14:in `block (3 levels) in <top (required)>'
3) PagesController LayoutLinks should have a about page
Failure/Error: get "#{page[x]}"
ActionController::RoutingError:
No route matches {:controller=>"pages", :action=>""}
# ./spec/controllers/layout_links_spec.rb:14:in `block (3 levels) in <top (required)>'
4) PagesController LayoutLinks should have a home page
Failure/Error: get "#{page[x]}"
ActionController::RoutingError:
No route matches {:controller=>"pages", :action=>""}
Failure error here is obvious. It shouldn't say get "#{page[x]}" but rather it should be get home and get about, etc...
How do I remedy? Thanks for the help. Much appreciated :)

Try the following:
describe "LayoutLinks" do
%w(home contact about help).each do |page|
it "should have a #{page} page" do
get page
response.should have_selector("title", content: page)
end
end
end
%w creates an array of strings (spaces become commas, so you get ["home", "contact", etc])
