[wtr-general] Watir tests - result reporting
Hi, I am new to Watir, and we are evaluating Watir as a tool to replace Qtp. One place I am stuck a little bit is regarding reporting the errors at the end after all the test suites are done. I have looked at various options those are discussed in the Watir community, examples and blogs. i started with Html reports from the examples, tweaked the code to make the interface simpler - but found it to be still not simple enough. Then I looked at Test::Unit. The problem I find with Test::Unit is that the output is in free text format, and consolidating the results is a pain. Please note we are not Agile practionitners. We are looking at Watir as a testing tool for the testers - not for the developers. We do not use BDD, so tools like Cucumber or RSpec probably will not suite us. Also, I found even Rspec gives its output as free text format. I am sure there must be a better simpler way. Probably I am just not able to find any pointers towards it. What I am looking at is a solution that will write the results to a simple excel/csv file. I thought the Test::unit in itself could be extended to do this, when any assertion passes or fails. I thought this must be a simple thing to do, and probably somebody has already done it. I also read in the Test::Unit documentation that Observers can be added to Test::Unit TestResult. Is there any sample implementations of this which will write it to an excel/csv as I mentioned above? Your help will be greatly appreciated.

RSpec output is text by default, but you can specify that you want HTML report. It is as easy as (at command line): spec my_specs.rb -f h:log\report.htm More information on RSpec output: http://rspec.info/documentation/tools/spec.html Željko -- watir.com - community manager watirpodcast.com - host testingpodcast.com - audio podcasts on software testing. all of them -- Before posting, please read http://watir.com/support.

It depends. :) If you provide some sample code I could change it to use RSpec. Željko -- Before posting, please read http://watir.com/support.
