Hi Guys,
Another question for you bunch as you seem to be the most helpful out
there (have posted on the comp.lang.ruby group with no response).
I have been trying to make requests to the webserver via SOAP adapting
an example i had found on another site. Am i looking at the right
thing for what
I was testing an rss feed and used Mechanize + Hpricot to do so. I got
the url from the application using Watir and then passed it to Mechanize
to get the page and then used Hpricot to validate it.

Hi,
Its been quite some time, since i've started using Watir. Its awesome. I've
used Hpricot to test xmls. It worked out well for me. Please refer:

Hi Bret,
No i havent used Mechanize. Nor have i heard of it to be honest.
Before i jump into it and start playing around with it, i would like
to ask have you used it in the means in which im trying to access the
xml defined above?
Cheers

Have you considered using Mechanize instead of Watir? That's what I've
used when I've had to test XML.

My guess at what's going on is that View Source gives you the source
XML, but IE#html gives you the XML transformed into HTML for pretty
viewing in the browser. Not sure how you get at the untransformed XML
with Watir. Perhaps someone knows of a way to get IE not to transform
the XML (or to replac
Hello Again,
After playing around with rexml with some of the URL’s provided in
this thread and other sites I have found I have established that you
are in fact correct and that rexml would be the way to go. However, I
am still making requests and receiving responses to and from the WS
via the UI
You really don't want to be reinventing XML parsing (badly) with
string substitution or regular expressions. Given a string with your
XML in it, the REXML code to get the values you want would look
something like the following. You'll have to use something like
Net::Http to actually make the web s
A useful general principle if you are wondering if something will work
is to try it. In Ruby, start IRB (type irb at the command line) then
type your ruby code. Irb will show you the results after each line.
You do not need $ signs (ruby global variable) but you must certainly
quote your s
Would i be able to do some thing like this:
$a = TESTA
$b =
$c =
$d = a - b
$e = d - c
which in turn would make $e "TESTA"?

Hi Richard,
To be quite honest with you here I am not entirely sure as to why the
business wants automation around the accessing the WS with a browser.
I’m relatively new here and have been set the task in my early days to
spike various automation tools and from what I have read and heard

Why are you accessing the web service using Watir and IE? Will end
users of the web service access it with a browser? If not, and if
you're just using the web service to get data to use in other GUI
tests, you might find something like Net::Http and REXML to be more
appropriate for this part of yo
