Tools to write Integration tests with rspec 1, rails 2.3, ruby 1.8.7

Question

I've an application running with this setup:

• Ruby 1.8.7
• Rails 2.3.18
• Rspec 1.3.0

I want to write some integration tests and wanted to use capybara, unfortunally as far as I've researched it is not compatible with that setup. The latest capybara version compatible with rails 2 is 1.1.4 but it requires rubyzip that requires ruby 1.9. I tried installing rubyzip 0.9.9 that is compatible with ruby 1.8, but seems like that version of capybara is not compatible with it. So I dont know if it worth to try with an even older capybara version, or if is better to use other tool like webrat.

What alternatives do I have to write integration tests on this setup? What would be your choice?

Answer 1

I would advise going for Cucumber and Webrat, IIRC that was what I used at that point in time.
