Hi Angrez,

Good work !

As you said, watir is a easy tool to learn, and i noticed couple of drawbacks while using the tool.

1. when Popup or window comes up.
2. Can not go for debugging mode( can do in other tools like QTP, Test Complete).
3. No built in functionality to generate the reports.

Aidy Lewis (http://twitter.com/aidy_lewis) is from London.

Or ask at http://groups.google.com/group/watir-general. 1700+ Watir users there. There must be somebody from London.

OK – I guess I didn’t listen to the whole podcast, must have skipped the last minute (just re-listened to it).

I haven’t used WatiR before, but I have used Selenium and WebDriver a lot.

I have started an Agile Testing meetup group in London (http://www.meetup.com/agiletesting). Do you know anyone who would be interested in talking about WatiR at the meetup group, giving a quick demo and explaining the benefits of using WatiR over other tools?

Thanks again..

Hi Nathan. Hemal said a few words at the end of the show (starting at 36:59). I guess it is not clear what “featuring” means. It is just a way to promote people and companies that use Watir.

Hi Željko,

The talk description mentions that Hemal was going to be talking in this episode – but I listened to the whole thing and didn’t hear him. What happened?

If you are interested, Hemal is talking at SkillsMatter in London tomorrow (27/10/09) – you can catch the video podcast on their site a few days later.

Thanks..

Thanks Pradeep, I do my best. And, it is hard to mess up with such good guest and co-host.

Pradeep, try to count how many times I say “actually”. Probably even more than 84 times.

I counted the number of times Angrez Singh used the word “basically” and “I mean” throughout the podcast. It is 84 times.

Test it out.
