When I ran the install, the following was added to the spec_helper (with
the comments removed for brevity):
require "watir/rspec"
RSpec.configure do |config|
config.add_formatter(:progress) if config.formatters.empty?
config.add_formatter(Watir::RSpec::HtmlFormatter)
config.before :all do
@browser = Watir::Browser.new
end
config.after :all do
@browser.close if @browser
end
config.include Watir::RSpec::Helper
config.include Watir::RSpec::Matchers
end
The "goto" method is added to examples by the "config.include
Watir::RSpec::Helper" line. Though you will likely want to include all of
these lines if you are just starting out.
