require ‘rubygems’
require “selenium-webdriver”

driver = Selenium::WebDriver.for :ie
driver.navigate.to “http://google.com”

if driver.title == “Google”
puts “Testcase 1 passed”
else
puts “Testcase 1 failed”
end

q = driver.find_element(:name, ‘q’)

q.submit

sleep 5

if driver.title == “RAVEENDRAN SELENIUM – Google Search”
puts “Testcase 2 passed”

puts “Testcase 2 failed”
end

q=driver.page_source

if q.include?(“raveendran.wordpress.com”)

a=driver.find_elements(:xpath=> ‘/html/body/table[2]/tbody/tr/td/table/tbody/tr/td/div

/form/div/table[4]/tbody/tr/td/input’)

a.each do |b|
b.click
end

sleep 4

if driver.title == “RAVEENDRAN SELENIUM – Google Search”
puts “Testcase 5 passed”
else
puts “Testcase 5 failed”
end
