This code, originally provided as a patch, is now bundled with Watir 1.5. Technically, it is not a patch for Watir, but rather for Test::Unit.

Run your test methods in the order you've defined them

Ruby's test-unit library executes test methods in alphabetical order. This test case subclass executes them in the order you define them instead.

To change the way the methods in a test case are executed use execute :sequentially:

require 'watir/testcase'

class TC2_Sequential < Watir::TestCase
  def test_b; print 'E'; end
  def test_a; print 'F'; end
  def test_d; print 'G'; end
  def test_c; print 'H'; end
end
