Editor's Notes
Watir (pronounced water) stands for "Web Application Testing in Ruby".
It can drive Internet Explorer (Windows), Firefox (Windows, Mac, Linux), Safari (Mac) and Chrome (Windows, Mac, Linux).
Watir drives browsers the same way people do. It clicks links, enters texts in text fields, check address, title and text of the page that is displayed in browser...
Since Watir drives browsers, it is irrelevant how the web application is implemented (Ruby, .NET, Java, Perl...).
Watir works on Windows, Linux and Mac.
Watir is family of open-source tools for automating web browsers.
It is implemented in Ruby (Watir), .NET (Watin), Java (Watij) and Perl (Win32-Watir).
It is implemented in Ruby (Watir), .NET (Watin), Java (Watij) and Perl (Win32-Watir).
Celerity is related to Watir. It has the same API, but it emulates the browser instead of driving one.
