[Wtr-general] 2 questions re: cookies and passing parameters

[amol deshpande]

Hi,
 answer to your second question is "Yes".
You can pass in a command line argument (example :
pass in the url). ARGV[0]=> argument '1' on command
line, this is JUST after  the test name and before you
pass in "-f" for the fast mode or any other watir
parameter.
If you want to keep it optional, then you will need to
incorporate appropriate logic in your code .
testSite="http://www.xyz.com"
if ARGV[0]==""
    ie.goto(testSite)
else
    ie.goto(ARGV[0]) # the command line argument      
end

Hope this helps
Amol
