I guess English is not your first language, but you will generally get
more helpful replies if you try and write a question that consists of
sentences rather than just a set of apparently random phrases. Also
if you at least try to give the impression that you have done some
research into the question already it may help get useful replies.

This may help http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/4404412 which is a
similar (though clearer) question with some helpful replies that was
addressed here a few weeks ago.

I suggest you get your keyboard fixed, the auto repeat appears to be
playing up. It will be difficult to write valid code otherwise.

Please remember to quote the previous message when replying, this is a
mailing list and it is inconvenient to have to look back at previous
posts to find information (the link for example). Preferably also
insert your reply at appropriate points in the previous message as it
is then easier to follow the thread. Thanks.

The reply by Frederick Cheung in the link [1] describes briefly what
webrat, capybara and cucumber are.

Googling for
compare webrat capybara
produces numerous sites comparing them. If you are unsure which to
use, the best approach would be to try them both and see which meets
your needs best.

I see certain keys are still sticking down on your keyboard. Notably
the dot and question mark, making it difficult to understand your
posts.
