I am an experienced scripter in both Mercury QTP and Watir, and I'd have to say
that they are very comparable in functionality. At this time niether QTP nor
Watir have the ability to do a whole lot easily with Firefox or other browsers,
and QTP will never support Safari or linux based systems,
Thank you, I.ve tried this and it works with test cases, but how about when
someone wants to use the test cases into a test suite and wants them to be
exequted sequentially? For example if we have a couple of test cases that are
subclasses of Watir::TestCase and we want them to be executed in a

If you run a Ruby program containing any classes derived from
TestCase, they will automatically
excellent point. The way feature requests are handled, the ability to
extend the functionality of watir yourself and no longer fighting with
a test tool vendor's support are the main advantages of watir over
mercury in my opinion.
and after all you can play with the nice ruby language instead of
Thanks for the great input. I have a more specific question though. How is the
support of (well written) QTP steps down the road?
Watir/Ruby scripts (if well designed) seem to be very easy to support. Is that
also the case with QTP?
Post the code you are using that causes this, that might help :)

Hi,
this has been discussed but the solutions don't work for me.
The story:
I want to test an application that uses JS-Alerts to communicate errors. I
found a code snippet that should solve this, but instead I get always this
exception:
WIN32OLERuntimeError: hwnd
OLE error code:80004005 in

Don't know about QTP, but I remember Winrunner was laughable. I would
guess if you
are using VBScript JavaScript as your test script languages
Here's the next FireWatir or SafariWatir, I think:http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/press/mozilla-2006-11-07.html

No, I wanted the fetched Google pages to lecture you.
If my focus were on Unit/Integration Testing, I would likely agree with
you. That is, you set up the tests, perform the required steps and checks

I discovered this
toolkit for WATIR which appears like it can solve some of WATIR's problems like
clicking modal dialogs and automatically logging. Has anyone used this
toolkit before? Anyone have any ideas on if it is a good toolkit or
not? Thanks, the link to WET is here
Will,
I used WET for amonths (also for the modal
dialogs). However, it was only compatible with Watir 1.4 if I recall
correctly, and some of the other features of Watir 1.5 were more important to
me, so I switched back. Since, I have had no problem using Watir to handle
anything WET could
This is great theory, but Paul is correct in stating that sometimes it
is impractical. I have worked on sites with server-side code that was
far too complex to be tested in that manner. It would simply be
impossible to test them as "stateless" or "stored-state". You traversed
the sites in a
Can you use WET's capture system to extrude scripts which you then run in
Watir 1.4?

If you pick up the development WET release, it also supports Watir 1.5.
The best way to get this development release is by installing the Watir
