apologize my mistake, i know cucumber is more of a regular expression engine. I should have said watir-classic/watir-webdriver.
Same question, but for watir : how does it finds the html ids, is it by parsing the html code or looking at the DOM structure ? I read http://watirmelon.com/2011/08/02/watir-webdriver-obselete-element-error/ that there is a difference between how watir-classic and watir-webdriver finds the element Basically i would like to understand if there is any performance difference between the two ways of finding elements ?
