Traditionally, web apps have clickable text in the form of links and buttons.
Capybara's
click_on
method is made for just this.
click_on("Home") # for <a ... >Home</a>
click_on("Submit") # for <button ...>Submit</button>A lot of more modern, JS-heavy apps stick click handlers on all kinds of
elements. If you want to test what happens when you click some text that is not
a link or button, click_on won't work. Instead, you'll need to find the
element and
click
on it.
