Looking for some help with the creation of two time savers. Note: Using ruby 1.8.7 and Watir-webdriver as well as IE 9. I'm trying to set up some page validation scripts but every attempt has failed, these run prefectly fine in the program if I repeat them and fill in linkX and PagetextX with specfics each time but i'd prefer to be able to run each with a simple bit of code calling the function. Such as: verify.LinkX("Terms")or verify.LinkX(href/ID/etc, "Terms") #which would validate a link called Terms. and verify.PagetextX("Your info is important"). Thanks for any help or direction, TJ Code samples below. #First process-------------------------- puts "\n" puts "Verifying (linkX)." ie.link(:id, "(linkX)").exist? print "Actual Result:" if ie.text.include? "(linkX)" puts " Test Passed. Found: 'LinkX'. Actual Results match expected Results." else puts " Test Failed! Could not find: 'LinkX'." end ie.link(:href, /(linkx)/).click #Second process------------------------------- puts "\n" puts "Checking for Page text '(PagetextX)'." ie.text.include? "Govern Your Use of Our Site" print "Actual Result:" if ie.text.include? "(PagetextX)" puts " Test Passed. Found the test string: '(PagetextX)'. Actual Results match expected Results." else puts " Test Failed! Could not find: '(PagetextX)'." end ----------------------------------------------- -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
