Automation Helpers

The new OSS name for the gem formerly known as ca_testing

This package will allow you to extend your automated testing frameworks with the following

Driver creation: Allowing you to simply reference your drivers with a simple method (No more confusing capability classes / methods)
Simple extensions to regular classes (A bit like ActiveSupport where it's needed / common)
Extensions to the commonly used Automation Packages (Selenium / Capybara e.t.c.), DSL's (Think of things like enhancing Capybara::Node::Element e.t.c.)
Patches required to allow instant fixing of bugs in upstream repos whilst fixes are in PR and being reviewed / merged

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'automation_helpers'

And then execute:

$ bundle
