Hot on the heels of #Selenium 4.0, #Watir 7.0 is now released! Only minor updates from the most recent beta version, and an overall improved experience for working with Selenium 4! https://t.co/OuhJ6aG3Za

New beta version of #watir 7.0 is released. Fixes vendor extensions bug, changes the default alert behavior, and implements a new way to set timeouts in seconds when initializing the browser. https://t.co/w58fBpqNJr
Watir 7.0.0.beta2 is released: https://t.co/Tpro4uw40c
A performance boost for dropdowns and some other minor fixes and improvements. Watir 7 beta2 + #Selenium 4 beta2 now provide better support and functionality than production versions of Watir 6 + Selenium 3, so please update!
Watir 7.0 beta 1 has been released: https://t.co/MHNDP6x9AJ
Even though #selenium 4 is still in beta, it's the recommended version to use. This Watir beta release takes advantage of the various improvements and latest features.
Let us know what you think.
#selenium 4 beta 2 #ruby gem has been released! Mostly just adding support for browser specific functionality in Remote WebDriver, including the new DevTools commands. Also released selenium-devtools gem to independently manage future devtools method changes. More on this later!
Just released #watir 6.19! Likely the last 6.x version as we prep for Watir 7! This one is all about capabilities: bug fixes, missing functionality and deprecations to make it easier to maintain with #Selenium v4 going forward. Let us know what you think! https://t.co/8DY3YKkDfv
in some happy OSS news, the first new release of the page_object gem in two years is out today: https://t.co/CDDRUKGoWI I understand it'll be getting some nice updates soon.
Just released #watir 6.18.0!
Hopefully this is the final release before Watir 7, so it is adding a couple deprecations along with a couple minor new features. As always, let us know what you think!

Note that `#when_present` is automatically applied to `#click` so it isn't required. Also, check out webdrivers.gem for ensuring your chromedriver version automatically matches your Chrome version.
