the only difference is that watir has wrappers to help you locate elements On Sun, Sep 8, 2013 at 5:57 AM, Avihay Eyal avihay.e...@gmail.com wrote: Hi, I'm trying to evaluate the two frameworks, and I couldn't find a recent and comprehensive comparison of the two...

Re: [wtr-general] watir-webdriver vs selenium-webdriver
This should pretty much answer all your questions: http://watirmelon.com/2011/12/03/a-tale-of-three-ruby-automated-testing-apis-redux/ :) On 12 Feb 2012, at 22:36, yawshikwa wrote: Just curious, as I was having a discussion with someone else about this topic, but for those here who have directly compared watir- webdriver vs selenium-webdriver, what are the reasons you selected one over another? I prefer watir-webdriver, and one of the main reasons is I feel the api allows for more flexibility with object recognition. After having used both, I just find watir to be more user friendly and pleasant to work with. The only reason I sometimes still consider selenium- webdriver is for access to a cross browser solution such as Sauce Labs. I'm not aware that something like that exists for watir yet.

I think a couple of guys from Sauce Labs had a talk last year at Watir Day (at Selenium Conference) on how watir-webdriver works on their platform.
