[Wtr-general] Can Watir be paused & resumed manually when running test cases?

[Charley Baker]

  I'd highly second that. It's small simple and breaks you out where you
want to be to inspect your current state through irb. It's been dropped and
ruby-debugger is the newer project, but since I haven't had a need for much
else, I haven't looked at ruby-debugger yet. The ruby eclipse plugin also
has debugging facilities, but since I don't run through Eclipse but by
command line, I can't say too much about it, other than it's your basic ide
debugger.
