SafariWatir stands for "Web Application Testing in Ruby for Safari". SafariWatir is a free, open-source functional testing tool for automating browser-based tests of web applications. It works with applications written in any language. SafariWatir drives the Safari browser the same way an end user would. It clicks links, fills in forms, presses buttons. SafariWatir also checks results, such as whether expected text appears on the page, or whether a control is enabled.

SafariWatir has been deprecated and replaced by Watir-Webdriver.
