Selenium on Rails
New version.Updates at the end.One of the things I like about Rails is the built-in support for testing – it’s almost hard not to write tests. But even if I write extensive tests (currently “Code to...

Hello, Thanks! I've wanted to try Selenium for quite some time, now I have no excuse :-). I'm curious about the line: > Selenium on Rails is disabled for production environments. since one thing...

You're welcome! It's easy to enable the plugin for production environment, just edit init.rb. But then you must make sure that the plugin isn't installed when you're putting the app into production...

There is a problem running this plugin with edge rails. I get a SeleniumController not found. It seems to be related to the reloading changes that have been checked in recently. Reverting back to...

Well scratch that, it's still not working. The current test suite pane is giving a RailsError with: undefined method `test_suite_name' There seems to be some problem with the modules/includes...

Thanks for letting me know Wayne! I'll try it on edge rail and see if I get the same error.

Suite, that works! (pardon the pun...) I was still getting unbalanced newlines (and 6 test failures), so I changed your clean_text method to: text.gsub("\t", ' ').gsub("\r\n", "").gsub("\n","") to just...

That's just awesome thanks! I gonna start using it. I've used the generator to produce a simple test and could run the tests. However, rake test produces errors: 28 tests, 58 assertions, 6 failures, 0...

Very nice plugin! I'm an author of Selenium IDE which has been released recently (see http://www.openqa.org/selenium-ide/), and I've added a custom format to Wiki that can be used to edit tests for...

Comment on Vincent's patch: I also had to modify it to skip files that end with "~", which is an Emacs backup file.

I'm trying to use this (looks great), however I get errors when it tries to use element locators like "link=some link text to match" - it shows an error "Element link=some link text to match not found"...

Check the new version out and see if it addresses your issues! Shinya: Thanks! Selenium IDE looks great! I'll try it out some time... Joe: link=linktext doesn't work for me either, but I have no idea...

Jonas, thanks for the new version. It's working very well. I found that link= locator doesn't work in Selenium gem, but works if you install Selenium from svn into vendor/selenium/javascript. It seems...

What do you think about adding an option to disable Selenium in development environment? If you don't use fixtures, enabling Selenium in development environment would be useful. But if you do use...
View Article"Selenium on Rails" by Jonas
Thanks for sorting that out Shinya! I agree that the plugin should only be available for test environment per default. It has been available for development due to convenience, but I'll change it.

Great plugin! One thought: It would be really nice to be able to use ERB from within Selenese. This way, I could look up site configuration variables and use them in test cases, eliminating some...
View Article"Selenium on Rails" by Jonas
Thanks Erik! I'll consider it, but isn't it good with duplication in this case? If the constants change for some reason, don't you want the tests to fail? Do you have any example of what kind of...

OK, I decided to actually write some code. :-) Click on my name for a patch which enhances Selenium on Rails to support native Ruby test cases, including configuration data and URL routing.Here's a...

Thanks for the cool plugin, Jonas! I agree, sometimes it's good to duplicate constants. Other times, though, I just want to write:|assertTitle|#{SITE_NAME}|...and not worry about updating a bunch of...

Nice patch Erik, good job! I've just browsed through the code briefly, but I have one question: don't you think it's better to use method_missing where no logic is required? It would result in less...

I'm glad you like it! I included rdoc and test cases and tried to stick to your style as much as possible.And yes, method_missing would be a perfectly valid approach. I put in stubs for two reasons:It...

http://svn.viney.net.nz/things/rails/plugins/selenium_testing/README Do you interface with this, use this?
View Article"Selenium on Rails" by Jonas
No, the two plugins are two different solutions to the same problem. If you want to write the tests in Ruby and use my plugin, Erik's patch above is the closest match at the moment. Have you noticed...

Shinya: the new version is enabled for test environment only by default. Eric: your patch is included in the new version. Thanks a bunch!
