[wtr-general] Re: Trying to go back to watir 1.6.2, won't install correctly

[George Wiley]

I don't have a solution to fix the current install but what I have
done in the past when I just can't figure out what is going on (like
yesterday I could not get watir 1.6.2 to work on a machine) I copied a
good Ruby folder from my working machine to the machine that I was
fighting with and I am back up and running.

 The other than might bite you is if you are using something like the
 RUBYLIB environment variable to assist ruby with finding helper
 methods you may have located in a specific directory.  That can also
 cause the same error when you are trying to require the file that
 holds those methods.

 Sorry to hear that you had some many issues trying to upgrade your
 scripts.  If you can give us any kind of post-mortem dump of the hard
 parts of the experience, it might help to figure out how to better
 document the process, or make things easier in the future.  We really
 need to improve the user experience there.

 I've been doing similar upgrades, but to scripts a bit newer than
 yours, and perhaps that has made a big difference for me.

 If it does not list watir gem there, then you do not have it

 Try running this again:

[wtr-general] Is Watir being used by your developers?

[George]

Hi there,

My company is determining a solid automation framework that will be
used by both QA and developers. Although I've created a ton of Watir
scripts, I'm pretty sure that the developers will not embrace will
I've put together. Has anyone had any success in convincing your
developers to use Watir?

[wtr-general] Re: Watirgrid: returning provider host names

[George]

Thanks for your patience. I got this working. I first opened a command
window and typed 'controller' to start the controller. Then I was able
to run this using SciTE:

require 'rubygems'
require 'watirgrid'

grid = Watir::Grid.new(:controller_uri = 'druby://
controller_address:port')
grid.start
puts grid.browers

I was able to see the hostnames at this point.

[wtr-general] Re: Watirgrid: returning provider host names

[George]

Thanks for the reply, Tim. For the record, I'm using Ruby 1.8.7. Your
first example only returned the hostname of the controller (the
machine I'm running the script from). For the second example, I'm
getting  undefined method '[]' for nil:NilClass (NoMethodError). I'm
not sure what I'm doing wrong. Here's what I'm working with:
require 'rubygems'require 'watirgrid'
Watir::Grid.control(:browser_type = 'firefox',                      
     :controller_uri = 'druby://127.0.0.1:',                    
       :driver = 'webdriver') do |browser, id|   
browser.goto('http://www.google.com')    puts browser[index.to_i]
[:hostname] # ERROR    browser.closeend

On Nov 8, 3:23 am, @90kts tim.ko...@gmail.com wrote:
 Hi George,

 Each grid provider has a hostname attribute e.g.
 grid = Watir::Grid.new(:controller_uri = 'druby://124.180.42.243:11235')
 grid.start
 grid.browsers
  = [{:name=:WatirGrid, :class=:WatirProvider,
 :object=#Watir::Provider:0x007ffaf38973d0, :description=A watir
 provider, *:hostname=cpe-124-180-42-243.lns2.lon.bigpond.net.au*,
 :architecture=x86_64-darwin11.1.0, :driver=webdriver,
 :browser_type=chrome}]

 So to get the hostname of the first provider in your grid for example:
 puts grid.browsers.first[:hostname]
 cpe-124-180-42-243.lns2.lon.bigpond.net.au

 And if you were using the Watir:Grid.control helper, instantiate a grid
 object first (as above) so you can access it from within the block.
 ruby-1.9.2-p180 :024  Watir::Grid.control(:controller_uri =
 'druby://124.180.42.243:11235') do |browser, index|
 ruby-1.9.2-p180 :025      puts grid.browsers[index.to_i][:hostname]
 ruby-1.9.2-p180 :026?   end

 Tim

  To get the grid browsers attributes, you need to call the *browsers* method

[wtr-general] Watir script compartmentalization

[George]

Hello, I was curious to know how granular folks are making their Watir
scripts. As an example, I have an authentication script that contains
three parts:

1. Checking the elements of the login page
2. Performing valid logins and validating the output
3. Performing invalid logins and validating the output

Currently, all three parts are in one script. I'm wondering if I
should separate each of these into its own script. It would seem to
make sense, but I'd like to see what your opinion is.

Thanks!

[George Wiley]

Hugh,

Thanks that explains a lot. I can continue testing in 1.9.2. with that
in mind. I will try my code in 1.8.7 to see how it goes.

Joe,

You have to attach to the modal if you have not done that already.
Also watch out for frames. If there are frames involved you will have
to connect to the frame first.

[wtr-general] Can't access HTML in modal dialog using Ruby 1.9.2 and Watir 2.0.2

[George Wiley]

The code below works fine with Win7, IE8, Ruby 1.8.6 and Watir 1.6.2
for accessing an 'Internet Explorer_TridentDlgFrame' modal dialog.
This code gives the error below when I upgrade to Ruby 1.9.2 and Watir
2.0.2. It does not appear to be a timing issue because I have tried
sleeps and Watir::Wait.until without success.

I can find the dialog but I cannot access the HTML code. I can also
find the dialog using RAutomation directly but I have the same
problem. I can't see the HTML to access the controls on the modal
dialog.

The modal dialog has a text_field a select_list and 2 buttons all
within a frame.

Is there another tool I should be using with these newer versions of
Ruby and Watir to access the HTML in a modal dialog?

Thank you for your help.

require 'watir'

ie = Watir::IE.attach(:title, /my title/i)

I tried it both ways with the same results. I found that it works when

use:

ie.table(:id, 'Menu').row(:index = 1).click()  # this syntax works

instead of:

ie.table(:id, 'Menu').rows[1].click()  # it would be nice if this

[George Wiley]

Here is my test code. Maybe you can see what my problem is. The below
code works in 2.0.1 if IDX value is 0 but fails if IDX is 1.

require 'watir'
Watir::IE.zero_based_indexing = false
# Watir.options[:zero_based_indexing] = false

test_site = 'http://mysite.com'

ie = Watir::IE.new()
ie.goto(test_site)

IDX = 1  # This works in 1.6.2 but does not work in 2.0.1 with either
of the zero_based_indexing switches set above.

ie.table(:id, 'Menu').rows[IDX].click()

[George]

Hi Lisa,

I think I found an example you're using here:

http://www.upscale.utoronto.ca/test/dojo/tests/widget/test_Select.html

I'm looking at Select #2 (dataUrl, autocomplete=true). The only way I
could get it to work is by using send_keys:

b = Watir::IE.attach(:title, /Dojo/)
test_field = b.span(:class = dojoComboBoxOuter dj_ie, :index =
2).text_field(:class, dojoComboBox)
test_field.focus
b.send_keys(florida)
sleep 2
b.send_keys({ENTER})

 We are changing what used to be regular drop-down select list boxes to a

                     option value=0

                 1717 Capital Management / 300 Continental Drive /
 Suite 3 South / Newark, DE 19713-4329 /

             /option

 I thought I could use text_field to set a value here, just as if I typed it
 manually on the page. I tried ie.text_field(:id,
 'advisor.dealerId').set(some value). When I do this in irb, I see it set
 the value, but when I submit, it shows the default value was selected
 instead. I also tried fire_event(onclick), that didn't help.

 We were able to get our Canoo WebTest scripts to select these with its
 forceHiddenInputField step. I thought maybe I could do something similar
 in Watir with input type=hidden, but I can't get the syntax right and I
 can't find any examples. I can't figure out where I would put input
 type=hidden in my text_field step.

 Would someone please point me to examples that might help me figure this
 out? I apologize if this is an ignorant question. I searched the mailing
 list and the Watir site but I could not figure out how to make this work.
 thanks,
 Lisa

Hi Charley,

I might need to talk to you.  As I've been learning Watir, I steered
away from established frameworks (frankly, out of my lack of
understanding) and developed my own framework which included HTML
reporting.  However, as the number of tests have been increasing and
gaining more visibility to others within my team, I'm finding that
it's become more difficult to maintain.

So, I might need to (gulp) re-structure my tests.  I still need to
talk to my boss about this, but I'll take a look at those links and
develop some simple tests.  Hopefully, this will inspire me to adhere
to already-established frameworks.

 Tazahttps://github.com/scudco/tazais a framework I've architected and
 used in several large companies, which has many of the same concepts
 that people are moving towards - e.g. page and site models. Please do
 check these out, use them and try not to reinvent your own framework.

 Ruby has builtin support for a base test library - a few of us have
 added additional test frameworks on top of that which are used in
 heavy large scale application testing with AJAX and all the goodness
 from years of experience. Cheezy's posts are a build up of real life
 experience using Watir and Cucumber on various client sites. I'd
 highly recommend following them, there are several more coming.

 I'll drop a hint, Taza is an awesome framework for web ui testing,
 well used and also extensible. If you want to get involved in either
 Taza or Watir, we've got a lot of work to do, and I'm happy to mentor
 from the newbie on up.

 And test file become clearer. For examples:
 Instead of browser.div(:id, content).table(:index, 1).cell(:index,

 you can use repository.get(Awesome field).set(Test Value)

 If location of field will change then you can fix it in one repository
 file

 It is easy to organize Data Driven Testing

 If you use the Cucumber as testing framework it will be clear for all
 (developers, testers, managers, users):

 Given ...

[wtr-general] Re: Watir handling of ul and ol tags

[George]

Hi there,

I had to modify Watir to read th tags. You could apply this to ol
and ul. Here's what you do:

1. Go to C:\Ruby\lib\ruby\gems\1.8\gems\watir-1.6.5 (or whatever
version you're running)\lib\watir\non_control_elements.rb

2. Insert the following into your code:

class OL  NonControlElement
  TAG = 'OL'
end
class UL  NonControlElement
  TAG = 'UL'
end

You *should* be able to read any text within those tags, although I
haven't tested this. This worked for me when reading the th tags.
Good luck!

Thanks Adam.  Kind of weird...I was the one that updated the original

On Jul 6, 9:09 am, Adam Reed reed.a...@gmail.com wrote:
 Joe,

 Since the report is a basic .html file, you can open/view/launch it
 just like any other web content.  You could launch a browser and
 supply the browser.goto command with the file name you defined earlier
 (from the tutorial):

 @report = @html.createReport('google_search', 'Google Search',
 browser_type)

 As I understand it, this should create a file named
 google_search.html. So that you don't have to repeat this code for
 each script you create, you'd want your report name set as a variable
 that you can access later.  Obviously there's a lot of exception
 handling and validation you would want to add, but here's an idea of
 how you could handle it:

 - test.rb
 report_name = google_search #
 path_to_report = C:/Logs/#{report_name}.html
 @report = @html.createReport(report_name, 'Google Search',
 browser_type) #FROM TUTORIAL

 !-- code code code --
 !-- code code code --

 @html.finishReport(@report, browser_type, test_environment) #FROM
 TUTORIAL
 view_report(path_to_report)

 - includes.rb
 def view_report(report)

[wtr-general] How to sell Watir services to non-techie customers

[George]

I was hoping I can get some advice from you all regarding how to
utilize my Watir skills to help others automate tasks. I guess my
questions are:

1. How do I sell my services to a potential customer?
2. How much should I charge for script development? Is it by the hour?
By the size of the project?
3. Would I need to require them to install Ruby/Watir/other gems to
run the scripts or should I try to encapsulate it into an .exe file?
4. Any other advice/insight?

Thanks,

[wtr-general] Creating a Rubygem to use in conjunction with Watir

[George]

Greetings,

I have created a number of custom classes to use with Watir. It would
be nice if I could compile them into a gem and distribute it to the
other members of my team. Is this possible? I'm not sure if this is
right forum to ask this.

Please let me know if you need more details from me, thanks!

-George

[wtr-general] Re: Filling Textarea - Rapidweaver

[George]

It seems to work for me (I'm using IE8).

require 'watir'

browser = Watir::IE.attach(:title, 'Kontakt')
browser.text_field(:name, form[element3]).set This example
demonstrates the power of Watir and Ruby!

[wtr-general] Re: Watir gem installation on Windows 7

[George]

Other than making sure that you're an administrator, I'm not sure why
you would get that error. I don't remember running into any troubles
when I installed everything. I used the Ruby 1.8.6 One-Click
Installer.



On May 19, 5:52 am, Betsy joybe...@gmail.com wrote:
 Hi Jarmo,

 Initially when I tried using the Ruby one click installer, it said
 that it wasn't compatible with Windows7 and that I should use rc2.exe
 for the same.

 When I installed ruby using the rc2, it did seem to get installed but
 I could access Ruby only through the separate command prompt icon
 provided with it and not the common cmd. The common cmd simply refused
 to recognize ruby as a command which it does when the one click
 installer is used with windows xp.

 Now when I type gem update --system and then gem install watir, it
 shows that watir is installed successfully. But when i execute a ruby
 script with require 'watir', it gives me an error saying no such file
 to load. :(

[wtr-general] Re: Verify tab order (tab index) on an HTML page

[George]

Thanks, Joedio. There is a way to do this using AutoIt. If I use
send_keys, then check the value of the text_field, I can determine
which element has focus. Unfortunately, this won't work with buttons
and links.


On May 18, 9:57 am, joedio joe...@comcast.net wrote:
 The Watir tabindex method you used is for HTMl tags with a tabindex
 attribute.
 For example:
    a href=#interactive tabindex=1 Link A/a
    a href=#interactive tabindex=2 Link B/a

 As you mention, your web page is NOT using the tabindex attribute,
 thus the method return 0.

 Perhaps you could use AutoIt's send_keys command to tab through the
 web page, e.g.

 # Advance to the next object in the tabbing order
 browser.send_keys({TAB})

 and after each command detect which object has focus. You could then
 collect the tabbing
 order, which could be saved and compared to the tabbing order found on
 subsequent runs.

 Sorry but I don't know of a means to tell which object has focus,
 Watir's Watir::Element class lack an in_focus? method.
 It has focus method to set the focus but not a method to verify if it
 is in focus.
 Perhaps someone else can assist with that.

Hello,

If I understand correctly, you're looking for the search term to be in
the result link's URL, correct?

If so, you can use this:

browser = Watir::IE.start('http://www.google.com')
browser.text_field(:name, 'q').set 'watir'
browser.button(:name, 'btnG').click

browser.links.each do |link|
  if link.class_name == 'l'
if link.href =~ /watir/i
  puts link.text
end
  end
end

   Hi guys,

   I'm evaluating Watir, and I'm trying to simple get an element using
   its XPath. But I'm having a problem.

   First look at the problem.

   I have the following element in my page:

   input type=text maxlength=15 tabindex=4901

   Notice that it doesn't have name neither id attributes. When I try to
   get it using xpath:

   browser.text_field(:xpath, //
   inp...@tabindex='4901']).set(something)

   I get the following error:

   D:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/firewatir-1.6.5/lib/firewatir/
   element.rb:907:in `assert_exists': Unable to locate element,
   using :xpath, //
   inp...@tabindex='4901'] (Watir::Exception::UnknownObjectException)
          from D:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/firewatir-1.6.5/lib/
   firewatir/elements/text_field.rb:149:in `set'
          from waitir_adm_jp_1.rb:10

   Watir can't find the element. But if I try to get other element that
   have id or name attributes using xpath (in the very same page) I can
   get it, without problems.

   My guess is that Watir can't acess elements without name or id
   attribute, even if it isn't used in xpath query, the element must have
   it. Is it right? If not, where am I making mistake?

   Thanks.

[wtr-general] Re: Fwd: [selenium-developers] Proposal for a Selenium StackExchange site

 You can check Stack Exchange site if the three of us is enough people to
 start the site. You can also copy Selenium proposal for creating the site
 and replace the data with Watir's data.

 I plan to do it in a day or two, but feel free to do it yourself. :)

 If the three of us are not enough people to start the site, we will have to
 wait for more people to say they are interested in supporting the site.

[wtr-general] Re: How to check if toggle link is open or closed

[George]

Hi Kim,

Using the example below:

http://www.tutorio.com/tutorial/javascript-expanding-menu

I toyed around with Example 1. One thing you might try is determine if
a link that resides in the hidden section is visible or not. This way
you can know if the expanded menu is visible.

browser = Watir::IE.attach(:title, /Menu/)
puts browser.link(:text, /Featured./).visible? # true if the menu is
expanded, false if hidden

[wtr-general] Re: Running my Watir Scripts in batch file??

[George]

One option is to put your script file names in one script file like
this:

(in batch_run.rb):
==

load 'watir_script1'
load 'watir_script2'
load 'watir_script3'

etc. This way, your other scripts will continue to run if one of them
terminates unexpectedly.

Hello,

I think this should work for you, although I don't think this is
specific to Watir:

require 'time'

a = Time.now.strftime(%I:%M %p)
puts a # returns '5:27 PM'
x =  Time.parse(10:30 PM).strftime(%I:%M %p)
puts x # returns '10:30 PM'

puts a  x # returns 'true'

Hi, sorry for the late response. I'm not sure why it's doing that. The
process should end at the end of your script. If the script crashes
while you're running it, there may have been a process still running
in the background. Sorry I can't be of better assistance.

 Your solution is the only one that is working for me for handling
 popups. Thank you!
 Minor thing  I couldnt figure out:
 Each time that there is a popup, ruby.exe process is being created. At
 the end of the test, I have lots of ruby.exe processes running, and if
 I have multiple testes running one after another, I have even more
 ruby.exe processes alive.

 at_exit is not killing them, and if I do only: Process.kill(9,@pid),
 then the popup is not closing, maybe because the process is being
 killed before the click.

 Any idea?

[wtr-general] Dealing with the  character

[George]

I'm not sure if this is a Watir or a Ruby question. I'm pulling all
the contents from a select list, and when I display each option, I get
something similar to the following (without the quotes):

3       Jubitz Travel
Center               Portland,OR

Is there something in Watir that will get rid of the  character? Is
this related to UTF-8? Ultimately, I'm trying to isolate Jubitz
Travel Center from the text string. If someone can help, I would be
most grateful!

Thanks,

George

please feel free to add it to the list:

First, create a file called 'popup_closer.rb' and add the following
code:



require 'win32ole'

begin
  autoit = WIN32OLE.new('AutoItX3.Control')

  loop do
   autoit.ControlClick(Windows Internet Explorer,'', 'OK')
   autoit.ControlClick(Security Information,'', 'Yes')
   autoit.ControlClick(Security Alert,'', 'Yes')
   autoit.ControlClick(Security Warning,'', 'Yes')
   autoit.ControlClick(Message from webpage,'', 'OK')
   sleep 3
  end

rescue Exception = e
  puts e
end



Next, add the following to your working script:



@pid = Process.create(
:app_name   = 'ruby popup_closer_cancel.rb',
:creation_flags  = Process::DETACHED_PROCESS
).process_id

#~ at_exit{ Process.kill(9,@pid) }



While the script is running, this will continue to check for any
popups and click OK. You can always change the options to No,
Cancel, etc.

If you want to kill the process earlier, remove the last line and just
type: Process.kill(9,@pid).

HTH,

George

 Subject: Regarding Getting Page Text in Watir and FireWatir
 To: watir-general@googlegroups.com

 Hello

 If i try to get the page text for watir and firewatir a peculiar problem
 arises;

 for watir if there is br tag then with the test a new line appers

 but for Firewatir this doesn't happen.

 I am not able to run directly my test cases made in watir into firewatir due
 to this behaviour as the split fails on the output of this method .

 Is there is something we could do about it/ or any other way??

 Regards
 Pallavi.

Have you tried to use the IE Developer Toolbar to figure out what the

determine how to access what you need.

I'm assuming that the text 'Something' is actually in a row's cell,

If 'Something' is only going to be listed once in the entire table,
then this should work for you:

puts @browser.table(:id, 'tableID').cell(:after?, @browser.cell(:text,
'Las Vegas, NV')).text

[wtr-general] Revised HTML report class added to Wiki

Well, this is my first attempt at trying to contribute to the Watir
community. I took the original HTML class listed in the examples
section and snazzed it up a bit:

http://wiki.openqa.org/display/WTR/HTML+report+class+%28version+2%29

Updates include:
- Reformatted the time methods
- Changes to the overall look and format from the original report
- Added a css folder to easily change the color scheme of the report
- Added an images folder to include browser type icons
- Included a test time duration in the report (minutes, seconds)
- Included a field to indicate the environment being tested

Any input (good or bad) is more than welcome, especially any advice to
improve it!

If you wanted to fill out all the text fields in the 3rd table listed,

Otherwise, more information will be helpful.

If it's the text field within the div, I believe you can also use the

$ie.text_field(:after? $ie.div(:text, 'name1')).set('abc')

 What i was saying that the Div contains maybe a text box on which you are
 trying to set the text.

 so directly give the textbox identification

 ie.text_field(:prop,value).set

 this should work..

 Let me know.

[wtr-general] Testing with Windows 7

[George]

Hello,

I'm not sure if this has been posted before...with the advent of
Windows 7, has anyone tried using their Watir scripts against this
OS?  Our company is gearing up to do this and just wanted to be ready
for whatever comes up.

Thanks,

George

[wtr-general] Re: Cannot get truncated text of a cell in a table

Hi there,

I think this might work for you:

puts @@leftNav.rstrip!

This should remove the \r\n tags.

Yep, that did it!  I didn't see the method 'lis' listed when I did

Oh well, glad it was available for me to use.  Thanks a lot!

As far as right-clicking an element, this is all I have as a

Another thought is that the word 'next' could be hidden in the html,
although I'm not sure if Watir searches for hidden text.

 Seems to me that the letters 'next'  might be rather common to find on

 If the 'next' is a clickable link or button , then perhaps you'd be
 better off to look to see if the link exists?

 while browser.link(:text, 'Next').exists?
   or
 while browser.button(:text, 'Next').exists?

 That's a lot less likely to give you a false hit on some other aspect
 of the page contents

[wtr-general] Re: Testing Email

[George]

Hey Bret, it's been a long time!

I found a couple of different approaches to this.  I'm leaning towards
Tmail (http://tmail.rubyforge.org/), but I haven't spent too much time
on this. It appears that you can send and read emails.

I also noticed that I can also use 'net/smtp' to send emails.  I'm not
sure how to read them, though.  Here's an example:


require 'watir'
require 'net/smtp'

# Net::SMTP.start('BVTEXS01').send_message(mail.to_s, frommail,
tomail, ccmail)

Net::SMTP.start('email server name') do |smtp|
smtp.send_message message, 'sen...@sender.com',
'recipi...@recipient.com'
 end

 Hi there. I've been away for a while, but am now back.

 I would like to automate email testing. Mainly make sure the right
 emails were sent.

 I guess what I want is to set up an email server in our lab, configure
 our app to send emails to it, and then my scripts can access it to
 make sure that the right email was delivered.

 I've done this before with Rails, and with that you can just put the
 email sender in test mode and validate it against directly. It works
 great, but is not an option for me right now.

 Is any one else doing something like this? What are you using? Is
 there an open-source testing-email-server I could use? Obviously, I
 want to be able to access it from Ruby.

[wtr-general] Re: Verify does not work while checking the links.

[George]

This sounds like more a fundamental Ruby issue than anything.  I'm not
sure how your first assert statement would work since you're calling a
local 'browser' variable within your method.

Try this out:

##
require 'watir'
require 'watir/testcase'

class VerifyTest  Watir::TestCase

  def url()
@browser = Watir::Browser.new
@browser.goto http://www.google.com;
  end

  def test01
# start the method
url()

# verify the element
verify(@browser.text_field(:name, q).exists?, message=Field not
active.)
  end
end

##

This should pass just fine.  If you're interested in a cool free
online Ruby course, I would suggest:

http://rubylearning.org/

I'm currently taking this course, and it has helped me tremendously!
Hope this helps...

 verify((browser.link(:text, 1).exists?), message=Link not active.)

 The above statement works fine.

 But when I use the above statement with global variable as shown below
 it does not work and  pass everytime whether the link is active or
 not.

 verify((@browser.link(:text, 1).exists?), message=Link not
 active.)

 In the above case I am getting the @browser from common file as shown

 # Calling function url to open specific site browser
   @browser = url()

 And common file has following code.
 # This function open the browser and navigate to site
 def url()
   browser = Watir::Browser.new
   browser.goto http://www.acs.org;
   return browser

 Is there any other way through which I can check the same thing?

 You should be using click_no_wait() for handling the pop ups. Else your
 script will get block. Basic idea is to use click_no_wait in the statement
 after which you are clicking the pop up.

 So it should be:
 $ie.text_field(:name,text1).set(This is the text in the popup)
 $ie.button(:name,submit).click_no_wait
 check_for_popups(Microsoft Internet Explorer, OK)

[wtr-general] Detecting whether or not text in a text field is highlighted

[George]

Hello all,

On a web app I'm testing, I'm supposed to check that text in a
particular text field is highlighted.  Is there an attribute that can
help me with this?

Thanks,

George

[wtr-general] Re: Help with class,method,objects

[George]

Are you using the Excel interface class from Watir's site?

 Hi All,

 I am not too sure whether I should post it here or in a Ruby forum.

 But there is a problem that I am facing while scripting a data driven Watir
 suite.

 1)       I have a class (say the base class) wherein I am fetching data from
 excel and storing them in a variable.

 2)       Now there's a generic method in the application which is stored in
 another Ruby file (not in a  class, not in a module)

 3)       I need to call this generic method with the object of the base
 class (since the object has the data allotted to the variables)

 4)       But when I do this it says   undefined method `methodName' for
 main:Object.

 So can somebody help me with this? What can I do so that I can access the
 methods and at the same time the data is set to variables for every row of
 excel sheet.

 Thanks in advance.

 Thanks,
 Rohan Ojha

[wtr-general] Differences in behavior between IE and FF3/3.5

[George]

Help!

I have a real-life example of some very strange behavior.  This works
just fine in IE but it is NOT working with FF for some reason:

require 'watir'
Watir::Browser.default = 'ie'
browser = Watir::Browser.new
browser.goto http://www.truckersedge.net;
browser.image(:alt, Members Login Here).click
browser.text_field(:id, ctl00_cphMain_txtUserName).set blahblah
browser.text_field(:id, ctl00_cphMain_txtPassword).set blahblah
browser.button(:id, ctl00_cphMain_btnSubmit).click
browser.link(:text, Cancel).click
browser.image(:alt, Members Login Here).click

I got the following error...any ideas why this is happening?

C:/Ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/firewatir-1.6.2/lib/firewatir/
MozillaBaseElement.rb:967:in `assert_exists': Unable to locate
element, using :alt, Members Login
Here (Watir::Exception::UnknownObjectException)
from C:/Ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/firewatir-1.6.2/lib/firewatir/
MozillaBaseElement.rb:1112:in `click'
from test.rb:13

Sorry, please update the script to:

Watir::Browser.default = 'firefox'

[wtr-general] Re: Object repository

Thanks, it's working for me!  Is there a way to handle other
attributes like :alt ?

 No, this mean 2 steps, which don't depend on each other:
 1. Install libxml-ruby
 2. Put in one folder 'repository.dtd' and 'object_repository.rb'

  Hello, thanks for this!  I'm looking at the README file and it says:

  Does this mean I need to copy the .dtd and .rb file into the libxml-
  ruby folder?  And if so, where should I place them?

  Thanks,
