:) I am a developer cum tester and have a team of same people who are more than willing to help. Have good knowledge of watir, selenium, sahi, qtp build frameworks over it. Of all this i found watir the most stable and best to use. I mean qtp couldn;t handled sync issues well and watir handles everything so beautifully that i am most of the times left speechless. I know ruby, .net, c++, mysql, pgsql, vbscript, java script and i guess i will learn on the way if required more. language is not an issue nor is logic reasoning. Can also help with documentation. I am interested in first making watir available for all browsers, most of the times watir usage becomed limited when the web-app requires to be tested on different web- browsers and that limitation hurts. Can we help with Fire-watir and Chrome-Watir to begin with and also can take up some doc work. We are more than willing.

Yes! :) If you can code: I know SafariWatir is not in active development (and Dave, that created it, offered help if anybody wants to take it over): http://safariwatir.rubyforge.org/ Sai is working on new Firefox driver: http://github.com/saivenkat/firedriver/tree/master and also on ChromeWatir: http://code.google.com/p/chrome-watir/ I am sure Watir and FireWatir code needs some work too: http://github.com/bret/watir/tree/master What are you skills? What are you interested in? Documentation can be better. If you can just answer questions here, that is great too.

[wtr-general] Re: Why watir works even if the DOM is broken??
Yes You are right most of the web is not valid html, and selenium says that this doesn't work if the DOM is broken. What do you suggest then, I believe if we could make watir available for all OS and browsers nothing could beat watir. Is there a way we can be help to this development? Can you let me know.

[wtr-general] Re: Why watir works even if the DOM is broken??
Like unclosed HTML Tags, same IDs etc etc issues. How does watir identifies an element ? Like Selenium wont work if the DOM is broken, but watir doesn' get affected by it.. Thats why im curious..
