Hi
 
Over the last few months I have been using WATiR to test a web application
we have been developing. As a noob to both Ruby and WATiR (myself and the
rest of the project team), I have to say we have found WATiR to have a very
shallow learning curve.
 
To aide non-developers, and to increase our productivity I created an
internal domain specific language on top of WATiR, I call it WSL (WATiR
Scripting Language). This has proved to be a very positive step increasing
our productivity and lowering the barrier to using it.
 
I have a short screencast of an internal demo I gave on how I arrived at
WSL, and how to use it. This is from the perpective of a complete novice to
Ruby/WATiR available here - http://xqoob.com. The demo is a few months old
and WSL has evolved a bit more since then. 
 
I would like the WATiR community's feedback on this, as I would like to
open-source this, and would make the move sooner rather than later if there
is sufficient interest!
 
Thanks
 
Wadud
