Running example test within Watir ...

[slr3975]

I am a first time user for Ruby/Watir and after running the google
search script to see it work, I get the following info:


>ruby test.rb

Any one know why?

What does your code look like?

Look up the information on msvcrt80 in the recent postings. You need to update your win32 utils gems which right now is a bit tricky.

# Please, when you update this file, update also
http://wiki.openqa.org/display/WTR/Example+Test+Case

#-------------------------------------------------------------#
# Demo test for the Watir controller.
#
# Purpose: to demonstrate the following Watir functionality:
# * entering text into a text field,
# * clicking a button,
# * checking to see if a page contains text.
# Test will search Google for the "pickaxe" Ruby book.
#-------------------------------------------------------------#

# the Watir controller
require "watir"

# set a variable
test_site = "http://www.google.com"

# open the IE browser
ie = Watir::IE.new

# print some comments
puts "Beginning of test: Google search."

puts " Step 1: go to the test site: " + test_site
browser.goto test_site

puts " Step 2: enter 'pickaxe' in the search text field."
browser.text_field(:name, "q").set "pickaxe" # "q" is the name of the
search field

puts " Step 3: click the 'Google Search' button."
browser.button(:name, "btnG").click # "btnG" is the name of the Search
button

puts " Expected Result:"
puts " A Google page with results should be shown. 'Programming Ruby'
should be high on the list."

puts " Actual Result:"
if browser.text.include? "Programming Ruby"
puts " Test Passed. Found the test string: 'Programming Ruby'.
Actual Results match Expected Results."
else
puts " Test Failed! Could not find: 'Programming Ruby'."
end

puts "End of test: Google search."
