You will find that Watir community does not like recorders. You can upload it on your site, github, or you can take over watir recorder project at openqa.org.

[wtr-general] Watir simple field recorder
There was a ruby watir recorder written by Scott Hanselman(of Microsoft of course) a long time back. It was a full fledged recorder and like other recorders had the issue that the code generated couldn't be reusable. I made some small modifications to this so that it identifies the element IDs and wraps the element as a property in a module. Basically the format of the code generated would be as folows: module MyPage def first_name $browser.text_field(:id, FirstName) end def first_name $browser.text_field(:id, FirstName) end end -- Before posting, please read http://watir.com/support.

[wtr-general] Watir simple field recorder
A long time back, Scott Hanselman of microsoft had posted a ruby watir recorder in his blog. Like most other recorders, this had the problem that the code generated couldn't be reused. I made some small tweaking to this code so that when a user traverses through the page, clicking on each element that he wants to record, it records all the elements in the Watir format and gives back a nice module with properties defined for each element. As a sample say you have a page with two fields FirstName and LastName. The recorded output will be something like below: module MyPage def first_name $browser.text_field(:id, FirstName) end def last_name $browser.text_field(:id, LastName) end end Now just add this module to your test cases and use first_name, last_name etc directly without bothering about the identification of IDs. I could share this script if anybody was interested. But, I am not sure where I can upload it. Thanks, Babitha -- Before posting, please read http://watir.com/support.
