Test Like a Boss with OperaWatir and OperaDriver

We're thrilled to tell you about two new testing tools aimed at developers
, just released.
OperaWatirPronounced water and stands for Web Application Testing In Ruby. OperaWatir is a new addition to the powerful and popular family of Watir testing toolkits, and brings automated testing to any device. OperaWatir will allow you to test your website in the way a regular visitor would expect to use it allowing developers to focus on results that are easy to read and manage.
OperaDriverOperaDriver's end-user emulation ensures that your entire stack (HTML, scripts, styling, embedded resources and backend setup) functions correctly, without tedious manual testing routines. So, you can setup tests that browse to your site, search for some terms, select a result, fill in and submit a form, and then print a page.
Opera as a test environmentTesting in Opera is a big step in the right direction. It just became much easier to test your website for open standards compliance. And if your already using Watir, you can plug Opera right into your testing environment for a leap toward improved compatibility and automated testing for any device. At Opera
, we use these tools to run well over a thousand automated tests on our own products. Now you've got the tools to do the same. Open up, and enjoy the results.
