Watir webdriver using PhantomJS as the driver. Benchmarking it. Biggest issue worry from the post is that he couldn't get PhantomJS as the driver to work with more than one instance #phantomjs #_inbox #selenium #watir #driver #automation #pub

"Ghost Driver is a pure JavaScript implementation of the WebDriver Wire Protocol for PhantomJS. It's a Remote WebDriver that uses PhantomJS as back-end. GhostDriver is designed to be integral part of PhantomJS itself, but it's developed in isolation and progress is tracked by this Repository." #phantomjs #automation #watir #selenium #driver #webkit #javascript #pub

"The way to check that is is actually visible is to check a JavaScript property ‘naturalWidth’ is greater than 0. b = Watir::Browser.new :firefox b.goto 'https://dl.dropbox.com/u/18859962/brokenimage.html' puts b.execute_script("return (typeof arguments[0].naturalWidth!=\"undefined\" && arguments[0].naturalWidth>0)", b.image(id: 'watermelon'))" _Reference for self for how to call javascript from watir. This shows you use execute_script_ #watir #webdriver #javascript #automation #tip #pub

"The question that everyone keeps asking is "ok, so how do I automatically record Watir scripts"" "It's very rough but it supports text boxes, buttons, links, select lists (kinda), radios and checkboxes. It doesn't support frames, iframes, the back button, divs, tables, etc yet. It's also very sloppy code..." #watir #ruby #automation #desktop #apps #pub

How do you apply the CSS element to image after checking the checkbox? If you add the class attribute for highlighting, I guess checking class attribute is the simplest way. for example browser.image.class_name =~ /foobar/ If using style attribute, I think you might need to check HTML itself, like browser.image.html =~ /style=\"?foobar\"?/ #tips #ruby #watir #programming #pub
