This sounds like more a fundamental Ruby issue than anything. I'm not
sure how your first assert statement would work since you're calling a
local 'browser' variable within your method.
Try this out:
######################
require 'watir'
require 'watir/testcase'
class VerifyTest < Watir::TestCase
def url()
@browser = Watir::Browser.new
@browser.goto "http://www.google.com";
end
def test01
# start the method
url()
# verify the element
verify(@browser.text_field(:name, "q").exists?, message="Field not
active.")
end
end
######################
This should pass just fine. If you're interested in a cool free
online Ruby course, I would suggest:

I'm currently taking this course, and it has helped me tremendously!
Hope this helps...
