Hi Bret, I didn't want to give up on this and I managed to get part of it work.
According to the Ruby Cheat Sheet's "Truth and falsehood" section, "In Ruby, anything but the two special values 'false' and 'nil' are considered true for purposes of an 'if' statement." Since the assert always returns "nil" when it works correctly, I just added a bang to the if statement:
if ! assert($ie.contains_text("Please try again"))
puts "TEST PASSED. Found test string: 'Please try again.' "
end
So now my script will output "Test Passed" if the assertion passes (i.e. = "nil"). The "else" doesn't work, but then it's kind of redundant to print "Test Failed" anyway since the failure info appears at the end of the run (as expected).
Thanks for pointing me to the right doc info.
Cheers. Paul.
