    Congratulations to Tiffany and Wesley. I am glad to see Tiffany Fodor in Water Community, she deserves. Becuase I too got many clarifications very quickly from her through the watir-general group when I started designing Test Framework recently for my project based on “DataDrivenTestHarnessExample with Excel”

    Good Luck watir team!! Keep growing!!

    thanks,

    Greetings.
    Well I have been working with watir recently and I decided to create a simple logging class for others. I was wondering where I could post this. I can’t seem to find any community contributions sites or real forums.

    Thanks a mil!
