Some questions came up during a demo of WATIR. Our automation team would like to know whether WATIR can do
the following functions: 1.
Launch
external applications from a test script such as Excel, Word, etc. 2.
Include
variables, functions, web/window declarations and/or additional test cases from
other test scripts (E.g. – “uses”, “script:”) 3.
File
I/O (E.g. – Logging, test input/output data, expected results, etc.) 4.
Exception
handling (WATIR errors distinguished from system or OS errors) 5.
Customizable
result states (E.g. – warnings) 6.
Command
line support (launch, quit, run one, run multiple, output) 7.
Access
& scope declarations (private, public, protected, friend, etc.) 8.
Integrates
& interacts directly w/ desktop applications & Operating System on some
level (command line? Process id? Can it tell the OS of the machine running
WATIR is Win2K or XP, etc.) 9.
Change
script to trap System Error when table is not accessible 10.
Investigate
launching 2 scripts at the same time (use two different instances of IE) I believe most of the answers are YES, but I am not sure
about 4, 8 & 9. Your answers are appreciated. Thanks. |
