The only problem I see here is that a business developing some web application won't want to run their code on something as public as TestSwarm where people donate their own CPUs, because it can potentially give too much away about their POSSIBLY top-secret product or top-secret upcoming features.
BUT that being said, TestSwarm is open source, so a company could easiy grab the source code from github (linked below) and set it up on their own private cluster behind their corp firewall.

- jeresig 17y agoThat's fine because I don't particularly want commercial projects running on TestSwarm.com. I'm keeping it exclusive to large, trusted, open source projects. Honestly, if commercial projects wish to get help from general users who donate machines they should be willing to pay for the service. But, as you noted, it's also completely open source and anyone is perfectly welcome to run their own swarm on their intranet or public site.
