Hi Thomas,
I too am fairly new at using WATIR. The approach I'm using is pretty simple
to begin with:
1) I'm running on XP calling multiple WATIR tests from a batch file, where
the output of each test is redirected and appended to a .log file.
2) I'm then using a RUBY class I copied off the web (and modified) that
emails the contents of the .log file to interested parties. Any errors are
in the .log files.
3) Here the web site source code and the WATIR/ruby code are stored
separately in source control because different people write the product code
and test code (engineering vrs. QA).

Subject: [Wtr-general] Automating the running & reporting of watir tests
Date: Tue, 19 Dec 2006 15:34:34 -0500
Hi,
I just started using WATIR and fell in love at first sight. I'm sure
what I'm trying to do has been done before, so I thought I'd throw a net
out here and see what I catch...
Our dev team is building a half-dozen different apps (WARs) that, as a
whole, will eventually replace a legacy application. We've started
writing WATIR tests to check some of the individual WARs, but what I'm
hoping to do is get some advise on:
1) How do people schedule automatic execution of a bunch of
different WATIR tests, similar to Continuum might do. Is everyone out
there writing their own cron + scripts?
2) Is there are pre-built "watir-harness" that will email
someone when a test doesn't run as expected?
3) Do people typically source control their WATIR tests along
side the code that's under test? Or do they typically group all their
WATIR tests together in a separate project for
ease-of-reuse/ease-of-discovery purposes?
Thanks in advance!
Tom Vaughan
