Refresh POP Accounts in GMail using Keyboard Maestro

Ahoy Mac fans! One really great tool for automating repetitive tasks on my computer is Keyboard Mastro. I normally use it to automate inputting text (things like email signatures and addresses) but today I dug a bit deeper and in an effort to automate the tedious task of clicking on a series of links that I have to click each time that I want to fetch new POP email from my external accounts.

Before you dive in note that this will only work if you configure Safari to allow remote automation.

1. Action: Select Safari Tab

Set value Select tab to 1

#Run all tests for this project
bundle exec rspec

#run single test
bundle exec rspec path/to/spec/file/thingie_spec.rb

#Useful switches
bundle exec rspec --format documentation (more output context)
bundle exec rspec --order random (tests should be able to pass in any order)
bundle exec rspec --profile (shows you slowest tests)
