Watir
What is Watir?
Watir is an open-source test automation tool for web applications. Written in Ruby, Watir allows testers to write automated tests for web applications by interacting with web elements like buttons, forms, and links. Watir uses the WebDriver protocol, similar to Selenium, to control web browsers and perform actions such as clicking, typing, and verifying the content of a page.
Test automation with Watir is used for:
Automated web app testing: Performing automated UI tests for web applications, ensuring correct functionality and usability across browsers.
Cross-browser testing: Ensuring compatibility across different web browsers and platforms (e.g., Chrome, Firefox, Safari).
Regression testing: Running automated tests to detect potential defects after code changes or updates to the web application.
Behavioral testing: Verifying the behavior of user interactions, like filling forms, navigating links, and validating content dynamically on the web page.
