Željko Filipin's Blog on Software and Testing

In the first episode Željko Filipin talks with Bret Pettichord about Watir and what it does and doesn’t do well. Bret describes how people are building frameworks with Watir and the reasons why Watir was created in the first place. Also included are his thoughts on recorders and open-source and his new company, WatirCraft.

We were thinking about creating a page with all Watir contributors, and today I had a good enough reason to finally create it.

wiki.openqa.org/display/WTR/Contributors

Since I will not have the time to add all Watir contributors (answering questions at this list, writing documentation, code…), please add yourself to the page, and link to your contribution. If there are lots of them, just to the ones you are proud of. You can also add other people, just do not forget to link to the contribution.

Ruby on Beers 2

The second Ruby on Beers happened yesterday. About 15 of us appeared, much more than I expected.

We were talking about Heroku, Git and Watir.

We did not have the time to talk about Unicode and RSpec, so we will talk about it the next time. There was interest in talking about Rubinius.

The next Ruby on Beers will probably happen at the same place (Multimedijalni institut, net.kulturni klub mama, Preradovićeva 18, Zagreb), at Saturday May 31st 2008 at 5 pm.
