Replace all hard-coded instance of the the URLs with a variable or a constant.
Store that different URLs in a hash in a file. Something like this:
URLS = { dev: 'https://url1.com', prod: 'https://url2.com'}
Then, in whatever you're using to run the script, add an option to specify the
environment when running. one way to do it would be to use ARGV. Then run the
script for the environment, let's say you want "dev":
myscript.rb dev
In the script, assuming that you have access to the URLS constant defined
above, then you could then get the URL associated with the environment you
specified at the command line by doing something like this:
TARGET_URL = URLS[ARGV[0].to_sym]
And then use TARGET_URL wherever you need to call goto in place of the
hard-coded URL.
There are better ways of doing this but it sounds like you're just looking for
ideas to start organizing, HTH.

Hi,
I'm using watir ruby for my testing I have quite lot f script written for a
website and sometimes I have test in different environment like UAT or DEV
site. At the moment my setup method below are in the same file as my test
scripts. @browser = Waitr::Browser.new..... @browser.goto "https...."
I want to be able to change the goto website just one time instead going to
each file to change it everytime. I have tried move the above code to a
different file and use the require ''...." method in the test script file but
it doesn't work.
Any advice on how can to call the @browser.goto from another file?
Thanks
