What is the best web-automation IDE?

Asked By Amanda Mitchel 30 points N/A Posted on - 02/08/2015

I'm learning web-automation, currently just using iTerm, Watir and SublimeText, but I thought it's better to use IDE to continue my work.

What I've learned already: 
– basics of Ruby
– basics of Watir and Mechanize

Now I need one good IDE to check my scripts for possible errors.

I've tried RubyMine but I'm also looking for other options(with tutorials online if possible).
