First off; I am fairly new to
Ruby and Watir (3 - 4 months), and I
really excited about its potential. I am also very new to the user
group. I have done some research, but I am unable to find the answers
to my problem, so I apologize if this is a redundent topic.
Now, lets get to the point....
I am using
Ruby and Watir to build set of tests for a product. As my
tests are increasing in number I need to begin building a directory
hierarchy that will help organize and easily extend my tests. Below is
an example of the hierarchy I am experimenting with (with no success).
-- Product
-- common
-- includes
include.rb
-> contains: references to lib files ie:
require '../product page A/lib/prod_pageA.rb' --> {See below}
require '../product page B/lib/prod_pageB.rb'
-- product page A
-- lib
prod_pageA.rb
--
test
tc_prod_pageA.rb {require '../../includes/include'}
-- product page B
-- lib
prod_pageB.rb
-- test
tc_prod_pageB.rb {require '../../includes/include.rb} or {require
'../lib/prod_pageB'}
-- release_night_tests
-- lib
-- test
test_relnight_A.rb {require '../../includes/include'}
-- composit_tests
-- lib
--
test
The intent is to reference all of the product page libraries
(product_page_name/lib) from the
include.rb. That way I can create
composit tests as well as release night tests, smoke tests and others
(those end-to-end tests that utilize multiple pages to verify certain
features of the product), by simply including the
include.rb file
alone.
This layout is not working for me, so I thought I would query the group
to see where I am going wrong or a better approach to organize my
tests.
