I hesitate to ask this question because I feel like the answer will end up
being blindingly obvious or else horribly complicated. Plus, I suppose it's
more of a Ruby question than a Watir one. I'll ask it anyway...
I have a page that has a list of documents on it. You can do typical things
to these documents--open, copy, delete... etc.
Currently, I have a page class I've created with custom methods that look
something like this:
def open(name)
@browser.li(:text=>name).button(:title=>"open").click
end
So when I instantiate the page's class my test scripts look, for example,
like this:
library.open "file.txt"
What I'm wondering, though, is if it's a simple matter to create a
class/method structure that would allow code that would, instead, look like
this:
library.document("file.txt").open
I thought I had a way to do this, but--in retrospect not surprisingly--I
get an undefined method error because the class of the document("file.txt")
object is Watir::LI. Duh.
Still, it seems like if there's a simple way to do this it would DRY up my
code quite a bit.
Thanks for reading!
