Actually, I'm a member of the QA team (limited development experience). So,
we are attempting to use RSpec without rails. What is Rake? Near the end
of your response, you list a way of running multiple spec files by creating
a spec task. Since, I'm not a developer, could you please provide me with a
clear example on how to do this? Or, if there is an alternative method on
doing this, please let me know. Thanks again.
My current setup is:
1 spec file that relies on accessing a module of classes to perform Watir
web app testing. I've included a sample of the code below
describe LoginWelcomeScreen do
describe "using IE Explorer" do
before(:each) do
@login = LoginWelcomeScreen.new(IEWebBrowser.instance)
end
it "should support a username text field" do
@login.test_username_field.should be_an_instance_of(Watir::TextField)
end
it "should support a password text field" do
@login.test_password_field.should
be_an_instance_of(Watir::TextField)
end
.
.
.
.
end
