I guess English is not your first language, but you will generally get more helpful replies if you try and write a question that consists of sentences rather than just a set of apparently random phrases. Also if you at least try to give the impression that you have done some research into the question already it may help get useful replies.

This may help Confused about testing options for rails - Rails - Ruby-Forum which is a similar (though clearer) question with some helpful replies that was addressed here a few weeks ago.

I suggest you get your keyboard fixed, the auto repeat appears to be playing up. It will be difficult to write valid code otherwise.

Please remember to quote the previous message when replying, this is a mailing list and it is inconvenient to have to look back at previous posts to find information (the link for example). Preferably also insert your reply at appropriate points in the previous message as it is then easier to follow the thread. Thanks.

The reply by Frederick Cheung in the link [1] describes briefly what webrat, capybara and cucumber are.

   2. is the webrat is advance than capybara.......or vice-versa .....or capybara is advance than webrat..

Googling for compare webrat capybara produces numerous sites comparing them. If you are unsure which to use, the best approach would be to try them both and see which meets your needs best.

I see certain keys are still sticking down on your keyboard. Notably the dot and question mark, making it difficult to understand your posts.
