Hello there.  I just installed Ruby and WATIR on my computer a fewhours ago and 
am still learning about this scripting language.
I started with the WATIR User Guide and tried out the steps in "Step 3- Run the 
Watir Unit Tests".   The final sentence here says: "Thetests should all run and 
pass."
Unfortunately, I keep getting failures when I run "all_tests.rb" :"182 tests, 
1036 assertions, 5 failures, 2 errors"
Here are my system specs:- Windows XP SP2 (all the latest windows 
updates/security patches applied)- Internet Explorer 
6.0.2900.2180.xpsp_sp2_gdr.050301-1519- ruby182-15.exe (installed to default 
c:\ruby)- watir-1.4.1.exe (installed to default C:\Program Files\Watir)- Active 
Content is allowed to run in files on My Computer. (I knowthis is working for a 
fact because I am running my internet radioscript file in a background IE 
window process while I work.)
I've scanned through the message archives and found similar errormessages 
reported by Hugh Sasse on Fri Jan 13 10:08:54 EST 2006(subject = "Unit 
testing").
First observation: I noticed that the unittests\html\images folder ismissing, 
but I'm assuming that these files aren't really required forsuccessful 
completion of the tests.Still, I did notice a few popup errors while running 
the testscomplaining that the files were missing.  I can't think that this 
isnormal/expected behaviour.
Second observation: it looks like a file (pass2.html) is missing.  Isthis also 
intentional?
I decided to run "core_tests.rb" but it also failed : "154 tests, 
929assertions, 3 failures, 0 errors"
-> Is there something that I'm missing here?  Is there a setup optionor 
environment variable that I should set to get these tests to workcorrectly?
Please let me know.  Thanks in advance.  I won't let these hiccupsslow me down 
while I run through the other examples and tutorials.  Ijust thought I'd ask 
before I forget.
Cheers.Paul.
