Perl encourages cryptic code, which makes it a bad choice. It also lacks an
interactive shell.
Python could work. Ruby was Brian Marick's choice and he was convinced to
switch from Python to Ruby when he sat with Dave Thomas and Andy Hunt on a bus.

Hi All,
I was explaining to my friend about Watir and its nice capabilities.
In the middle of the conversation he asked me as to why Watir uses
Ruby, which is not as well known as Perl, Python or other scripting
languages. Is there a special reason why Ruby is being used or is
just incidental.
Thanks
Raghu
