Installing the IE DOM Explorer

The Internet Explorer Developer Toolbar include several tools. We use the DOM Explorer to tell us the names and attributes of the controls and page elements we will be automating with Watir.

On the CD you will find IEDevToolBarSetup.msi

  1. Double-click this msi file to install.
  2. Select the default installation options.
  3. Start IE.
  4. Select Tools → Toolbars → Explorer Bar → IE Developer Toolbar

The DOM Explorer now appears at the bottom of the IE window.

You have now completed the tutorial software installation.
