hey sutou,

Thanks for the help. However i am facing a silly problem. What I did is
i put this methods in BaseClass class and extended all my test classes
with this BaseClass, however i face the problem as this
http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/2242330#1013688

So what i did is i make that class as module. now the problem is setup
and teardown gets invoked but startup and shutdown method doesn't.
following is the code I am using.
require 'test/unit'
require 'rubygems'
require 'watir'

module BaseClass
  class << self
    def startup
      p "startup"
      @browser = Watir::Browser.new
      @browser.goto("http://gmail.com")
      @browser.maximize
    end

    def shutdown
      p "shutdown"
      @browser.close()
    end
  end

  def setup
    puts "setup called"
  end

  def teardown
    puts "teardown called"
  end
end

DemoTest.rb
require 'Test/BaseClass'
require 'test/unit'
require 'rubygems'
require 'watir'

class DemoTest < Test::Unit::TestCase
  include BaseClass

  def test_first
    puts "first"
  end
end
