The script (test.rb):

== START ==
require 'rubygems'
require 'firewatir'

include Test::Unit
include Test::Unit::Assertions
include Test::Unit::TestCase

assert_same "hello", "hello"
== END ==

doesn't seem to work. It says:
test.rb:8: undefined method `assert_same' for main:Object
(NoMethodError)

Surely the includes include this method?

I am new to ruby. Googling just brings up billions of irrelevant
results. The more I google the more confusion occurs. If someone can
just give me a quick heads up to what is wrong then I can sort this out.

Thanks!
