Re: [wtr-general] Re: Issue with running watir on cygwin`
aha, so at this point I don't know anyone who actually uses the cygwin package ruby. I use c:/ruby/bin/ruby.exe which is a OneClickInstaller Ruby and I also use git bash for invoking gem and rake commands. Basically the git bash is the msys promp on windows, a replacement for cmd.exe. So is there are reason you need to use the cygwin ruby? or can you uninstall it. Then install the ruby one click installer and you can still use cygwin prompt to run all ruby stuff anyway marekj Watirloo: Semantic Page Objects in UseCases http://github.com/marekj/watirloo/ Support Watir Project http://pledgie.com/campaigns/2982 On Fri, Jan 29, 2010 at 9:40 AM, QAguy qablogm...@gmail.com wrote: which ruby returns usr/bin/ruby On Jan 28, 6:14 pm, marekj marekj@gmail.com wrote: I briefly looked at that thread and it looks like he had a Ruby from cygwin package and not a RubyInstaller when you run 'which ruby' does it return /cygdrive/c/ruby/bin/ruby? or /usr/bin/ruby ?

I have the same issue: When I try using 'x = Watir::Browser.new', I get a different error message: NameError: (eval):1:in `klass': uninitialized constant Watir::IE I wanted to use Git Bash but my tests require curb as well and for some reason I cannot install that gem via Git Bash so I went with Cygwin instead.

[wtr-general] New proposed Watir project home on the wiki
Hi, Now that we have the latest version of Confluence, I was thinking of updating the project home page on the wiki. I wanted to make it more dynamic, so I have come up with a proposal. The current page is: http://wiki.openqa.org/display/WTR/Project+Home The new proposed page is: http://wiki.openqa.org/display/WTR/Project+Home+%28Proposed%29 Please take a look and let me know what you think, and what you think could be better. Cheers, Alister Scott -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Watir General group.

[wtr-general] Re: Ads on watir.com
I responded on Watir-Development, but I will mirror it here for consistency sake: I am personally against advertisements on watir.com, because I think it defeats the whole purpose of creating a kick-ass open source tool, if your main site for it has advertisements for commercial/proprietary automated testing tools (wasn't watir created to avoid using vendorscripts?) Why is this thought even being raised? Are we short of money or something? What are the big costs we need money for? The current web site is hosted (by wordpress) for free... Even if we wanted to run ads on watir.com, we can't because we're using wordpress.com. We would need to migrate the blog to our own host and then pay hosting costs. It's a bit of a wasted effort in my honest opinion. I look forward to hearing others thoughts on this matter.

Re: [wtr-general] New proposed Watir project home on the wiki
I vote for the new page. It is more inviting and looks easier to navigate. -- Lisa On Sun, Jan 31, 2010 at 9:32 PM, Alister Scott alister.sc...@gmail.comwrote: Hi, Now that we have the latest version of Confluence, I was thinking of updating the project home page on the wiki.
