I am assuming that you are doing this not for the purpose of explaining what
the tests do (anyone who can't understand cleanly written WATIR doesn't
need the tests explained to them).

But you are talking about reverse storyboarding here right? Its got potential
alright, especially if you could automatically annotate reports in such a
fashion.

It would be especially useful if you could extract context from a fail this
way (parsing log messages).

You might never get a perfect solution, but it could be reasonably
deterministic for a respectable amount of non-trivial tests. Useful
for training too.
