Hi

Yes I did specify my browser in option.yml using the following example
from:

http://wiki.openqa.org/display/WTR/Browser.new

In that file it contains

Browser ie
Browser firefox

I also tried:

$b ie
$b firefox

(but I was getting the same error message)

You comment out the browser that you want to use. I know that if I
specify $b = Watir::IE.start("your url") or $b = Watir::Firefox.start
("your url") it will work but I was hoping to get it working with the
options.yml file
