Frameworks • Watir (Ruby) • Selenium (Java) • Watij (Java) • HtmlUnit (Java) • HttpUnit (Java) • WET (C#)
What to look for? • Documentation • Active user groups • Browsers supported • Operating systems supported • Ease of use • Does it support what you are testing? • Logging, DB support, Reporting, VMWare • Look at existing test cases for other features
Stuff to help - 1 • A good IDE • http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/ • http://www.aptana.com/ • IE Developer toolbar • http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=e59c3964-672d-4511-bb3e-2d5e1db91038&displaylang=en • Firebug • https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1843
Stuff to help - 2 • IRB – Interactive Ruby shell • Tab completion (.irbrc) • require ‘irb/completion’ • Persistent command history (.irbrc) • require ‘irb/ext/save-history’ • ARGV.concat [ "--readline", "--prompt-mode", "simple" ] • IRB.conf[:SAVE_HISTORY] = 100 • IRB.conf[:HISTORY_FILE] = "#{ENV['HOME']}/.irb-save-history"
Stuff to help - 3 • Turn off pop-up blockers • Have browser windows open to new windows • If you need UTF-8 support, add: • require 'win32ole' • WIN32OLE.codepage = WIN32OLE::CP_UTF8 • Make sure your data is utf8 encoded when saved • Problem dealing with frames – selenium??? • http://wiki.openqa.org/display/WTR/Frames • Use Ruby’s unit/test framework • http://www.ruby-doc.org/stdlib/libdoc/test/unit/rdoc/classes/Test/Unit.html
