[Wtr-general] I want to use Watir to test Firefox and Safari

[Bill Agee]

As for trying out FireWatir, you can get a prebuilt copy of the JSSh
extension (as well as the most recent installation instructions and
code) at the google code site:

http://firewatir.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/Installation/

If you use that, you shouldn't need to rebuild firefox.  I think you
can also use the same Watir install for both vanilla IE testing as
well as FireWatir, but this involves manually replacing a few watir
files with development versions (IIRC).

It does take a few extra minutes to set up and get used to using, but
FireWatir does work.  That said, I haven't been able to make serious
use of it yet because of the slow execution speed.
