At Sauce Labs, we use a combination of the Selenium API for taking screenshots and Castro for recording movies of browser pages. Things get fun when you can click button, type text into fields, or execute arbitrary JavaScript between screen

Yup, that's exactly what I'm going for... It'll be really cool when you can program anything to appear. My dream is to make it large enough to render "Han Solo in Carbonite" on this kind of display. :-)

Using Saucelabs labs is like talking with someone over IRC. (In Selenium's case, it uses an RPC-ish HTTP API.) You tell us what to do (launch a browser, open a url, click a button, etc.) and we'll tell you the result. Your scripts talk to u

Do you use any web service like Gmail or Google.com? They "force" changes on users all the time. That's the beauty of web development.

You can't upgrade frequently if you don't have any tests. Disclosure: I wrote a web testing tool.

If cost is too high, then IT departments should have the option to opt-out of automated updates. But I argue that the default browser release behavior should be opt-out -- like Google Chrome. MS' opt-in style is setting them up for failur

I didn't fail to understand it. I worked for years in corporate IT and have maintained and upgraded enterprise systems (PeopleSoft/Oracle) on slow (1 year+) upgrade cycles. Those days should die. And I came to that opinion from direct in th

It shows the test (as seen on the left side of the screen at sodajs.com) running in a real browser.

Headless browsers are faster , but they're not a real browser. Selenium was explicitly created to answer the question: "How does my app work in the actual browsers my users use?"

When you run a browser test on a cloud service, how do you know if it looked good or not? We created the video recording part of Sauce's testing service so you can see how the browser test worked in our cloud.

For me, the killer feature of Android 2.2 (and the Nexus One) is the built-in wifi tethering support. T-mobile is kind enough to not charge for this feature. Find out if you can run Android 2.2 on your phone, and if (or how much) your car

Right, they might find it's broken after they test it. But they said they're not even going to bother testing it because that would cost too much.
