Notes-1.5.1.1100 - Watir

We have released a new development gem for Watir.

Fixes all reported bugs with contains_text.
New Watir::TestCase#verify method (and verify_equal and verify_match).
The click_no_wait method now works in frames.
Released new IE.new_process method to 'watir/contrib/ie-new-process'. This starts up a new IE process for each IE window, which is really how it should be done. To close these use IE#kill. Any one getting intermittent RPC errors when opening windows may want to use this instead.
Several examples have been updated.
Moved enabled_popup to a new contrib directory.
Added several tests.

Accompanying this gem is a (new) bonus zip file that contains:

documentation (user guide)
rdoc
examples
unit tests

The following changes were made since the last development gem (1.5.1.1081).

Checking in simple bat file to install the rubyzip gem required by bonus file zip task in the rakefile. Changed the rakefile to use rubyzip instead of a system call to zip. http://jira.openqa.org/browse/WTR-105

Message:
update gem to include contrib directory

Modified : /trunk/watir/watir.gemspec

Revision: 1101
Author: bret
Date: 11:14:55 AM, Thursday, September 21, 2006
Message:
Add verify, verify_equal and verify_match methods to Watir::TestCase.
These methods work like assert, assert_equal and assert_match, except that these methods
will only log a failure when they fail. They will not raise an exception nor will they abort
a test case.

Anyone tempted to wrap a rescue block around an assert (shudder), should really use these methods instead.

Added : /trunk/watir/unittests/testcase/verify.rb
Modified : /trunk/watir/watir/testcase.rb

I believe this completes http://jira.openqa.org/browse/WTR-6
This repairs the code for click_no_wait in frames.
I believe that this also makes frames in frames and frames in modals support
click_no_wait. If not, that can be reported as a bug.

Fix for this error:

ERROR: While executing gem ... (TypeError)
./watir.rb:1286:in `+´: can´t convert nil into String

I assume that this happened because the gem was built from an export instead of a checkout.

Backed out most of the changes from Revision 1078.
Moved enabled_popup to a new contrib directory (instead of reverting it).

method "attach_command" needs to be defined for frames (whence it should recursively call @page_container.attach_command).
