First, make sure you have installed Raakt (follow the installation instructions if necessary). Then, install the WWW::Mechanize library (it will be used to fetch remote web pages) by opening a command prompt and type: text/html 2008-06-23T13:48:48+00:00 Peter Krantz http://www.peterkrantz.com/raakt/wiki/faq/faq I get an error when I test ASP.NET websites? If you get the “ran out of buffer space error” it is likely that the page you are testing has a huge viewstate. This will lead to a buffer space error in Hpricot which Raakt uses to build the document tree. In newer versions of Raakt, this is set to 256 Kb. If this isn’t enough you need to specify something larger for the Hpricot.buffer_size variable in raakt.rb. text/html 2008-01-26T13:21:55+00:00 Peter Krantz http://www.peterkrantz.com/raakt/wiki/start Raakt is a web accessibility analysis tool that makes it easy to integrate basic accessibility evaluation early in the development process. This means that you will save time (and money) as basic technical accessibility issues can be caught automatically as part of your automated test procedure. text/html 2008-01-26T12:57:23+00:00 Peter Krantz http://www.peterkrantz.com/raakt/wiki/examples/batchtest This example shows how Raakt can be used in a crawl script to check an entire site. It is based on Ruport, Raakt and SimpleCrawler.

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.
