Re: [Wtr-general] regex url

You can also just use Regexp.escape() in IRB to see what would be
escaped and therefore what special characters are in your string.
irb Regexp.escape javascript:PC_7_0_G6_selectTerritory('1',%20'select')
= javascript:PC_7_0_G6_selectTerritory\\('1',%20'select'\\)
Nice. I'll put it in the Watir FAQ's today. Any idea why we are given two
escape slashes, instead of one?
Might write a little compare between Java\Rational Functional Tester regex
v Ruby\Watir.

[Wtr-general] assert_false
Hi,
As you may know Test::Unit does ! include an assert_false.
I got this from the CLR archives.
Enter this in assertations.rb
public
def assert_false(boolean, message=)
_wrap_assertion do
assert_block(assert should not be called with a block.) {
!block_given? }
assert_block(message) { !boolean }
end
end
test example
regex = /Joe.*Bloggs/
assert_false($ie.contains_text(regex), #{regex} unexpectedly found in
HTML)

Re: [Wtr-general] Parameterization of data in the watir
We are using watir in our project, and we want to do the
Parameterization for few things in the script using excel sheet.
Before I run my tests, I input test data through the GUI, using a CSV. Here
is some code, but a pretty simple thing to do.
def enter_employees()
ObjectMap.new.instance_eval do
File.open('C:\auto_tests\test_data\employee_data.csv','r') {|f| #use
block so file is automatically closed
f.each_line { |line|
next if /^;/ =~ line #check for ';' at start of line
i = 0
line.chomp.split(',').each{|x|
i += 1
next if x.nil? or x == null #skip nil or null values
case i
when 1 #country
employee_country_id.select(x)
when 2 #depot
employee_depot_id.select(x)
when 3 #first_name
employee_first_name.set(x)
when 4 #last_name
employee_last_name.set(x)

Re: [Wtr-general] Keyword Framework UI
Bret wrote, Have you compared the Posey data driven framework with the Nagle data driven framework? (http://safsdev.sourceforge.net) Has anyone? I would like to know how they compare. [this has gotta be quick cos gotta go] The CSDDT is tied to the test-tool, it is simple and fast; but you need to write your own functions. Excel sheets get exported to txt files and read by the tool. You make up your own keywords. SAFS is tool and 'application' independent,though certainly with for example Robot it can be too slow because of lengthy switch statements. With minor changes you could use the same sheets for Winrunner, RFT, Robot, Abbot etc. Carl has two sheets one for the business analysts\test designers (high level), and low level sheets for test automators. You can use SAFS out of the box - the keywords are there (http://safsdev.sourceforge.net/sqabasic2000/RRAFSReference.htm). I have taught a graduate in a morning how to construct automated tests without knowledge of the tool or programming. But it must be a collaborative effort to really work. Carl mentioned last week that the TID driver with RFT was much faster than using the Robot driver. SAFS uses an IBM STAF service that can alllow data exchange between processes, so you can use more than one tool at the same time. The situation however is that test-tools will soon be open-source, so we will not be at the mercy of vendors as the SAFS team have been for over a decade. aidy --- This message and any attachment are confidential and may be privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure.
