WebDriver doesn't give direct access to the underlying DOM object like other implementations. Instead you can use b.text_field(:id, "text_field").style("color").
Den 8. aug. 2011 kl. 20:34 skrev hillary <weimar1...@gmail.com>: When there's an error, the application i'm testing changes the color of the element, a text_field, changes to red. Currently I validate that the text_field is red like this: b.text_field(:id, "text_field").document.currentstyle.color.should == '#444' I also will did to validate the color of a div message that tells the user that changes have been saved. i use the document.currentstyle.color for this also.
