Bug#703492: ITP: ruby-selenium-webdriver -- a tool for writing automated tests of websites



Hi Praveen!

I just had a look at the selenium-webdriver gem, and it looks like a
tough one. :(

For the good news: the runtime dependency on the 'websocket' gem can be
ditched easily: it's only needed for the Safari driver, which is no use
on Debian.

For the bad news: the gem cannot be used a the Debian source, it ships
with the following files that should be built from source:

  lib/selenium/webdriver/firefox/extension/webdriver.xpi
  lib/selenium/webdriver/firefox/native/linux/amd64/x_ignore_nofocus.so
  lib/selenium/webdriver/firefox/native/linux/x86/x_ignore_nofocus.so

The gem does not ship any test files either…

In any cases it looks like this gem should actually be packaged as part
of a larger 'selenium' source package that should probably build way
more packages than just 'ruby-selenium-webdriver'…

Cheers,
