internet explorer - Ruby, Watir Classic and IE: Browser stops unless it has focus -


after upgrading our test quite watir 2 wait-classic 3.6 we've discovered unless ie on interactive desktop , has focus our test scripts stop until timeout or gives ie focus. since run 5k tests nightly on our grid, bit of problem.

we're running ie8 on windows 7 , have been running suite without issue more year.

hopefully else has seen behavior , can provide insight.

in past when testing ie watir there actions in browser had resort using 'sendkeys' lot (due rather obstinant custom javascript based controls) noticed ie seems startup focus on url line of browser, , unless shifted, actions failed

so 1 of first things our tests did use sendkeys send 'tab' browser object, , seemed serve focus within browser session onto 'window' area of browser , not url field.

you might try , see if makes difference you.
