After checking it out, it looks like a better alternative indeed.
Thank you. Just two questions:
1.
"Not yet implemented for Vapir-Firefox
#click_button(button_text)
Finds a button on the modal dialog with text matching the given text.
Clicks on it."

I have one modal dialog in the site that I need Vapir to click "OK"
on.
Is there a way to do it in Vapir?

2.
Can Vapir work with other browsers that Watir supports. I'm interested
in using Chrome to make the tests run a little faster than Firefox and
far faster than IE.

thanks,
Michael
