Charley Baker updated WTR-315:
------------------------------
Fix Version/s: (was: 1.6.7)
Soon
> Firewatir does not accept options supplied through Watir::Browser
> -----------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: WTR-315
> URL: http://jira.openqa.org/browse/WTR-315
> Project: Watir
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: FireWatir
> Affects Versions: 1.6.2
> Environment: Ruby 1.8.6
> Watir 1.6.2
> On Windows XP
> Reporter: Alex Collins
> Fix For: Soon
>
>
> I think there should be an options() method on the Firefox class to support
> this, with this used for configuration options. FireWatir actually takes the
> options through the constructor method.
> Needs proper investigation.
> Needs method implemented and tests created, to ensure that options supplied
> through the Watir.options_file are correctly passed to FireWatir.
> From the email:
> I'm trying to override the :waitTime option that is seen on
> firewatir-1.6.2\lib\firewatir\firefox.rb by using an external .yml file to
> config my system.
> The easy way is just to modify Firefox.initialize and hard code the value
> (line 134 of firefox.rb), but it seems that setting the value via a yml
> config should be do'able too.
>
> Ideally, I would like to use something like this
> require 'Watir'
> Watir.options_file = 'Q:\\Ruby\\Data\\browser_options.yml'
> b=Watir::Browser.new()
> # New FF window appears with a 20 second connection timeout, instead of the
> normal 2 second timeout
>
> with the following optionfile settings
> browser: firefox
> waitTime: 20
>
> to load up all the options for use in FireFox - specifically set the default
> timeout for trying to connect to FireFox.
>
> I've done some investigation to see how the options are sent to FireWatir,
> but I'm afraid that I'm missing something. Also seeing if this is the long
> way around, or am I on the right track?
>
> Some things that I tried:
> Modified watir/browsers.rb to send in :options => [:waitTime] when using
> Firefox
> Modified watir/options.rb to add_choice named :waitTime of :type
> => :integer and :default => 10
> Modified firewater/Firefox.rb - initialize to puts waitTime - so I can see
> the current value
>
> I'm pretty sure that I need to find out how to send in :waitTime to
> Firefox.initialize, but I'm unsure on how to accomplish this.
