I'm not sure how you can get cucumber to preserve whitespace in the table definition. Have you tried putting an actual string inside the table definition " shilpa " and then reformatting that in your step?

I want to use table but not sure how to give value with prefix and suffix space. for example i want to use name ” shilpa ” not “shilpa”.

Thanks in advance.

I did not know about Spirit.create!(table.hashes) but now that I look at it it makes perfect sense. Thanks for the tip on create! I was experiencing that problem today when I deviated from using factory_girl Factories.

Shorter:

Spirit.create!(table.hashes)

In any case – always use the create bang method in tests, to avoid false positives.
