'=' is for assignment, '==' is for comparison.

sleep (10)

pageCheck = READYSTATE_COMPLETE = 4  # This sets pageCheck and READYSTATE_COMPLETE to 4

if pageCheck = true  # This sets pageCheck to true
  puts 'test passed'
else
  puts 'epic fail'
end


It's hard to tell exactly what you are trying to do, but I _think_ you 
want something more like

if READYSTATE_COMPLETE == 4
  puts 'test passed'
else
  puts 'epic fail'
end


or if you need pageCheck later

pageCheck = READYSTATE_COMPLETE == 4

if pageCheck
  puts 'test passed'
else
  puts 'epic fail'
end
