Install WatirRecorder++

WatirRecorder++ is not essential to develop Watir scripts, but it substantially saves the time needed to develop scripts. Watir Ruby scripts can be written manually, which means that the automation developer needs to write user actions one by one. This can be time consuming, so WatirRecorder++ can help. It is also a free windows application, which was developed by Scott Hanselman, an engineer at Microsoft. It listens to user actions in Internet Explorer and converts them into Watir Ruby scripts

You can download WatirRecorder++ here:

Once installed, you can start using it immediately and it&;s very easy to use and self explanatory. Just fire the recorder and Internet explorer will start listening to your actions and converting them to a ruby script in real time.

Install IE Developer ToolBar Internet Explorer Developer Toolbar helps speed developing Watir automated scripts. It helps you identify various properties of html objects in fast visual user friendly fashion. You can identify any html attribute by clicking on it.

You can download IE Toolbar here:

Now you're ready to begin automating your tests with ruby.
