[wtr-general] Re: watir::IE multiple windows always connect to same session
Thanks for your reply. If I open multiple IE windows manually, they will share the same cookie. This is the case also for Firefox. However, if I use watir- webdriver, the multiple Firefox windows opened by watir-webdriver do not share the cookie. This is why I am confused. I didn't try IE in watir-webdriver because it gives me errors when clicking a button. Also, people talk about the difference of Watir::IE.new and Watir::IE.start or start_process. These functions are for Watir, not Watir-webdriver. From my understanding, start_process() should open different sessions. So I am wondering if other people could open IE windows in a way as watir-webdriver for Firefox.

Re: [wtr-general] Re: watir::IE multiple windows always connect to same session
I think the windows 'runas' command might let you do this but it requires a little work to set it up. See the article here (the part at the very bottom): http://ask.metafilter.com/50999/me-want-two-cookies Caveat: I haven't tried these instructions. I think I got something working briefly back in 2007 but I ended up not using it as I didn't need to test something like a shopping cart.

Re: [wtr-general] Re: watir::IE multiple windows always connect to same session
i don't think that there's any way to do that directly from watir.you'd probably have to invoke it from dos and then attach to the new window. obviously you'd need to figure out which window to attach to. i think someone suggested VM as the solution. It might be easier to set up multiple VM instances.
