====== Using Raakt in Watir ======
[[http://www.openqa.org/watir/|Watir]] is a free, open-source functional testing tool for automating browser-based tests of web applications. It is pronounced "water". Watir is a Ruby library that works with Internet Explorer on Windows.

Since Watir drives an instance of Internet Explorer it is very easy to test pages that use AJAX or other techniques to dynamically render content.

To use Raakt in Watir, first [[:install|install the Raakt gem]].

Adding basic accessibility tests in Watir is easy:

<code ruby>
require 'watir'
require 'raakt'
require 'test/unit'

class TC_myTest < Test::Unit::TestCase

  attr_accessor :ie

  def setup
    @ie = Watir::IE.start("http://www.peterkrantz.com")
  end

  def teardown
    @ie.close
  end

  def test_startPagePassesBasicAccessibility
    #set up the accessibility test
    raakttest = Raakt::Test.new(@ie.document.body.parentelement.outerhtml)

    #run all tests on the current page
    result = raakttest.all

    #make sure raakt didn't return any error messages
    assert(result.length == 0, result)
  end
end
