Hello,
I'm making a case for Watir-WebDriver at work, and I'd like your insights.
First, a little background:
Automated front end testing is going to be owned by the QA department.
We're a small group of QAs, some more technical than others, but none of
us are programmers.

In the Watir book, during the Installation chapter it say that if you are
new to Watir, start with the webdriver gem, why is it best for new users to
start with the webdriver gem?

Hi...
Oddly enough my problem is described exactly in a Selenium thread here:

Firefox runs normally until I try to use FireWatir. The error message is as
described in the stackoverflow page.

That's cool. I could have used that some time ago.
any other tool that makes this possible. There might
be something fancy you could do in multiple libraries used by Watir,
but I did not have that kind of mandate.
I suggest a well-designed set of manual tours.

I want to use Watir for a little project. I was installing it on a Vista

For one thing, support for multiple browsers is excellent because the

I don't know what you mean by "object data". Probably a character

Also, I'm a pretty crappy OO programmer, so again, I would learn
