I am trying to automate a simple test using WATIR. I am completely new at
WATIR.
The test involves:
- browsing to a web site
- entering credentials to log in
- click on all the links in the navigation menu to ensure that each page
loads properly.
To verify that each page loads properly, I basically look at the page title
and make sure it is equal to the expected title.
I use "assert" for that.
My scripts works fine as long as each "assert" fails.
But there are several problems:
1) If any of the "asserts" fails, the script just stops. I'd like for the
script to run all the way to the end. How do I do that?
2) I can not get the "browser_type" arg to work. My script only works with
the default browser (Chrome). I would like the script to work for any
browser. For example: "ruby test.rb ie" or "ruby test.rb firefox".
3) I have tried to figure out a way to first validate that link in the menu
is present before doing the assertion but without success. For example, if
I click on a borken link in the menu, it will open a page with a HTTP 404
error code. The next test will fail because the page doesn't have the menu.
I would need to go back to the previous page.
4) Is there a way to log any failure. I'd like to see a report that says:
Page for 'Voter Registration' link failed. Actual title is 'Title XYZ'.
Thanks a lot. I'll do some more research do try to get all this to work.
