Yes, it is. But it tells me something interested about Watir. Thanks.

I actually made a recent change with the slim hope that it might have 
this effect, but mostly was pessimistic and didn't notice an improvement 
in my own tests. But maybe it really did work.

I'm surprised to hear that. Those mechanisms are just automatic ways of 
doing what you tried in the first place.

The difference is that I now do not see IE flashing bye. Is that surprising?

[Wtr-general] Hiding IE

2007-06-24 Thread Lennart Borgman (gmail)
I do not want IE to be visible when I run the tests. I am doing 
something like this now:

   $ie = Watir::IE.new()
   $ie.getIE.Visible = false

Unfortunately that means that IE is flashing bye. Can that be avoided?
