There are several known problematical tests in all_tests.rb. I've updated the user guide so that the next version will tell people to run core_tests.rb, but you already figured that part out.
The specific problems you mentioned (in all_tests.rb) mostly sound familiar. They are known and in several cases happen intermittently.
However, i specifically created core_tests.rb as a robust subset of all_tests.rb. I would like to see the details about the 3 failures you found while running them.
In one case recently, i found that -- believe it or not -- the IP phone software i was running caused a couple of these tests to fail. It somehow embedded html and _javascript_ in every web page by browser served and therefore was affecting some of the element counts.
In any case, it sounds like you've installed Watir correctly and have just run into some marginal issues.

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.
