Use Virtual-Box, Parallels, VMWare Fusion, or a similar desktop virtualization system to create a VM that is running some flavor of Windows. I'd recommend XP at first just for simplicity although it is getting pretty near to the end of it's supported life. Then follow instructions for installing Ruby and then Watir onto windows. If you want to test a web browser running under the native Mac OS, then Firefox : use Watir-Webdriver (preferred) or Firewatir Chrome: use Watir-Webdriver with Chromedriver see http://watirmelon.com/2011/07/08/using-the-super-duper-chromedriver-with-watir-webdriver/ or Zelkjo's book pages he linked Opera: use Watir-Webdriver Safari: use Safariwatir (older, not currently being developed) or convince Apple to get off their collective duff and help the Selenium Webdriver folks with what they need from apple to get Selenium 2.0 Webdriver working with Safari (right now the only Safari support, even under Selenium is for the older SeleniumRC technology, not the Selenium 2 /Webdriver that most serious Selenium users are moving to (and which Watir-Webdriver uses to drive the browsers using the more friendly and properly OOP/Rubiesq Watir API) -- Before posting, please read http://watir.com/support.
