Re: [Wtr-general] www.croczilla.com/jssh is down what does it mean ?
What does it mean for SafariWatir ? My understanding is that SafariWatir is Dave Hoover's project at http://safariwatir.rubyforge.org/ which is completely separate from Angrez's work, so there should be no implication for SafariWatir either. That is correct. SafariWatir is alive and well. SafariWatir has no dependency on JSSh or FireWatir, it uses the rb-appscript Apple event bridge to inject JavaScript into Safari to work its magic. I just spoke with Angrez a few days ago, helping him test a FireWatir gem on my Mac. As far as I know, he's still working on it.

[Wtr-general] SafariWatir 0.2.0
SafariWatir (http://safariwatir.rubyforge.org/) has been updated to use the rb-appscript project (http://rb-appscript.rubyforge.org/) rather than depending on AppleScript to do it's dirty work. This has improved performance dramatically.

[Wtr-general] Watir on Rails
I have just released a Ruby on Rails Plugin that allows for easy Watir testing in Rails.

Re: [Wtr-general] FireWatir deserves its own project
But the bigger issue of ensuring compatability between versions of Watir is tricky. For example, FireWatir doesn't support frames. Is this reasonable? I suppose that is up to whatever minimum standard is used to determine whether an API is sufficiently compatible or not. I like the idea of having a test suite that determines whether the API has met the standard ... and I suggest the suite be named Poseidon (god of wat[i]r). And even then, i suspect that each implementation would have some additional features that were not part of the standard API. No doubt. For example, SafariWatir has close and quit methods. One closes the window, while the other quits the application. Another example: SafariWatir has an alert method that returns an AlertWindow that has a click method. :-) This suggests that each implementation also should have a strict mode where it only allows execution against the core API or least creates warnings for all other uses. This way, users (or their managers) could make sure their tests were portable. Otherwise they wouldn't know until they tried. Great idea. ___ Wtr-general mailing list Wtr-general@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/wtr-general

I am happy to consult, and to hear any ideas about how it might develop differently, but i think it is time for it to spread its wings, and am not so sure that it wouldn't even be best if there were a couple active versions of Ruby/FireFox drivers, free to share code and ideas between them, but with out too much worry about consistency and agreement. It's probably too obvious to mention, but since I am the master of all things obvious, I will: let's make sure that every driver conforms to as much as the Watir API as is reasonable.

[Wtr-general] FireWatir on Intel Mac
I gave a talk on Acceptance Testing at RailsConf yesterday, showcasing Watir, Selenium, and Sahi. Since I have a MacBook Pro (and I hadn't installed Parallels/WinXP yet), I wanted to show off FireWatir. Alas, it appears that the JSSH XPI that FireWatir relies upon doesn't work on Mac Firefox. Dave Liebreich from Mozilla was able to get me a Firefox + JSSH build and Chris McMahon was able to get me the latest Watir source built into a gem (can't do that w/o Windows currently), and then I had to comment out any win32 stuff that Watir does when it is require'd, and voila, FireWatir on the Mac. It still suffers from insanely slow performace, but it's a start. Dave is still working on getting the JSSH XPI for the Mac working, but until then, he has graciously hosted an Intel-only Firefox+JSSH binary here: http://people.mozilla.org/~davel/jssh/ More info here: http://www.daveliebreich.com/blog/?page_id=6 Once he gets the XPI working, he will likely take down the Firefox binary. Thank you everyone working on (Fire)Watir, it's a great tool, and I hope that more work can be done to bring it onto the other browsers.
