Description

Prompted by a lengthy thread on the "Cukes" Google group about how Selenium is painful to use:

We use Culerity, which runs our app under MRI ruby, but tests it from celerity under jRuby. Works quite well, and is the best method of testing we've found with JS on the page.

  • Culerity
    • pro + means you can run your test stack under ruby and still leverage the speed of celerity
    • con - still uses the watir API
    • con - didn't seem very reliable

I use Watir or one of its clones (including celerity). Lately I have also been using WebDriver.

(WebDriver is apparently Selenium 2.0.)

See:

    Turned out to be relatively painless. I'm now using Culerity via Capybara. Already deployed. Will mark as closed.
