I need to be able to run my Ruby scripts with my Hudson builds but don’t want a browser window attempting to open.
I tried:
batman:ETW cmiller$ ./createAccount.rb -b
but this did not work.
How can I run my Ruby scripts using FireWatir headless?
Running on Mac OSX
I would look at using Watir-Webdriver instead of just plain Watir or Fire-watir. Especially since the only way to work with newer versions of firefox is going to be via Watir-Webdriver.
There’s an earlier SO question where the answer covers just this sort of thing, so I’d suggest trying what is described there there first. Can I use Watir to scrape data from a website on a linux server without monitor?
Also since I now know you are using Mac OS, the advice in this thread from the webdriver google group might be more applicable to you
