Indeed. Watir's strength for us was that we couldn't afford a huge application
and all the time and training that entails, and Watir allowed us to put
together a pretty comprehensive set of tests for our few websites.
Creating a general-purpose framework would probably make it as complex as just
using native watir/ruby anyway! It's bad enough with the number of tricks I
have to play with my simple "Login()" function to cater for the places where it
uses fields called "username", "usrname" or "user" for the same thing. In
which case it soon becomes easier and clearer to just use
ie.text_field(:name, "username").set("myuser")
ie.text_field(:name, "password").set("mypass")
ie.button(:name, "submit").click
