Waitr
Waitr (pronounced Water) is another browser based functional testing tool like Selenium. Waitr is written in Ruby and is available as a gem. Waitr is available for Internet Explorer and so obviously for Windows. Functional test automations can save a lot of time when it comes to testing the system for existing functions rather than doing a manual testing. Now that Waitr is there it complements Selenium on Firefox which covers both the key browsers widely used.

True, Selenium IDE only runs in Firefox. However, Selenium Core (the original version of Selenium) and Selenium Remote Control can be used to drive IE or Firefox on any platform with any programming language. Selenium, in general, is not a Firefox-only solution.
I would love it, though, if someone ported Selenium IDE to Internet Explorer as a browser extension, then I could say our IDEs were cross-browser, too.
