Statt is Selenium Testing All The Time. It’s being built as a replacement for Webrat using Selenium servers organized in a grid, to speed up testing with multiple servers.

Progress

As of version 0.0.4:

You can spawn a Hub, which stands in for the Remote Control server in a grid setup. This can only be started locally to minimize network latency contributing to slowing down the tests.
You can spawn one to as many RC servers you need to do the job. In the future, you’ll be able to specify the location of servers that are non-local, though you’ll have to start them up yourself.
You can start a client, spawn a browser session, and start sending commands to the hub.

TODO

<del>- set up the client to talk to the hub.</del>

setting up the api for the selenium client, with the goal of replacing Webrat steps.
- methods to locate links, buttons, etc. by their text.
- construct statt_steps.rb for inclusion in cucumber steps dir.
- remove webrat steps and place statt steps in features/steps dir using an executable.
- undo parameter for executable to restore webrat steps.
algorithm for dealing with features that modify the database to ensure a clean state for tests that need it.
cucumber integration (setup, teardown, tagging, database concurrency)
set up hub to communicate with multiple non-local RC servers.
minimize gem size (~7.8MB)
wiki on how to set things up (Cucumber, DatabaseCleaner, Machinist).
optimizations for speed.

Note on Patches/Pull Requests

Fork the project.
Make your feature addition or bug fix.
Add tests for it. This is important so I don’t break it in a future version unintentionally.
Commit, do not mess with rakefile, version, or history. (if you want to have your own version, that is fine but
```
bump version in a commit by itself I can ignore when I pull)
```
Send me a pull request. Bonus points for topic branches.
