How to execute JavaScript in Ruby written Webdriver test

Question

Is there a known solution to perform Eval (Javascript execution) in Webdriver, Ruby bindings?

The equivalent of the following example in Java.

 WebElement element = driver.findElement(By.id( "foo" ));
 String name = (String) ((JavascriptExecutor) driver).executeScript(
 "return arguments[0].tagName" , element)

Answer 1

The equivalent Ruby would be:

 name = driver.execute_script("return arguments[0].tagName" , element)

(to get the tag name you could also just call element.tag_name)
