DESCRIPTION:

Taza is meant to make acceptance testing more sane for developers(or QA where applicable) and customers.

FEATURES:

• Generate a project for browser-based testing
• Generate pages and sites for different applications
• Create flows that move through a site
• Use filters to control which elements are accessible on a page depending on its state
• Taza automatically creates and cleans up the browser for each site just like a File block
• Manage tests by tags
• Cross-site testing

ISSUES:

• Taza has only been used in the wild with WATIR(Safari/Firefox/IE), but Selenium support is built-in
• Taza's generators currently generate RSpec specs, Test::Unit and other test framework support is planned

SYNOPSIS:

Taza is meant to be a refreshing way to look at browser testing. Taza provides a few ways to abstract browser-based testing into three simple ideas.

• Sites
• Pages
• Flows

Sites have Pages. Pages have elements and filters. Flows are common actions on a site such as logging in or performing a search.

Here's an example for starting a project around Google apps:

  $ taza create google
  $ cd google/
  $ taza site google
  $ taza page home_page google
  $ taza flow search google
  $ rake spec:isolation:google

That will generate an RSpec HTML report at artifacts/functional/google/index.html

REQUIREMENTS:

• Ruby >= 1.9.3
• A browser.

INSTALL:

• $ [sudo] gem install taza
