You can run watir with the -b switch to make it faster. We are also working
on other methods to improve performance.
But 200 sessions is a lot for watir. Most boxes cannot support that many
instances of IE, whether you are using watir or just creating IE sessions
manually.
So i agree with Je
It sounds like you are doing load testing which is not what I think
WATiR is intended for.
WATiR is meant for functional/procedural testing.
If you are simply wanting to load/perf-test large quantities of
simultaneous sessions on the system ... That would possibly be better
suited for simple HTTP
Hi Everybody,
I started using WATIR to write my first web
application test script two ago.
-- The web page I am testing has approximately 6 input
boxes and 7 drop down boxes for each record. And I am
displaying 10 records per page. To view more user have
to use 'Next >>' or '<< Previous' buttons.
