DESCRIPTION:

We are putting Watir on Safari. The original Watir (Web Application Testing in Ruby) project supports only IE on Windows. This project aims at adding Watir support for Safari on the Mac.

Requirements

Mac OS X running Safari. Some features require you to turn on “Enable access for assistive devices” in System Preferences > Universal Access.

SYNOPSIS:

require 'rubygems'
require 'safariwatir'

browser = Watir::Safari.new
browser.goto("http://google.com")
browser.text_field(:name, "q").set("obtiva")
browser.button(:name, "btnI").click
puts "FAILURE" unless browser.contains_text("software")

INSTALL:

 [sudo] gem install safariwatir

or

 git clone git://github.com/redsquirrel/safariwatir.git
