I love it, except for the project name. I was thinking it was going to be another "Run Python on Android" project.

They're not the same service. Browsermob does load testing. Sauce Labs does acceptance (aka functional) testing. When you want to make sure every feature of your site works in every browser, use Sauce. During our beta, we'll let you try sau

Through the power of the internet, I can work on Sauce Labs and Selenium from Chicago. :-)

Ward wrote the first prototypes of his Wiki using HyperCard, so you could say that Ward wrote and created HyperCard stacks, but he didn't create HyperCard itself.

Running tests more than once at the same time by default is a very good idea.

That's why I started saucelabs.com. We use Selenium to support businesses running their own web tests on 11 different browser/version/os combinations.

It is. See the description for "Personal Care". They say the average for sex is 54 seconds. :-)

In the video of the landing, you can hear Neil ask about error "1202", which I think I found in the source here: http://www.google.com/codesearch/p?hl=en&sa=N&cd=10&... Which is talked about here: http://history.nasa.gov/alsj/a11

So let them finish their homework in 10 minutes, and then find something that will take the child more than 10 minutes to do. And praise them for working on that . If praising the 10-minute homework effort is ridiculous, then don't do

I remember reading this when it first came out in 2007, and it's stuck with me ever since. When my boys (now 5yo and 3yo) do accomplish something super cool (riding a bike, catching a ball, learning to swim), I remind them that it was lots

Regarding the "drops in the bucket" -- Yes, you're right, but that's besides the point. Social change has to start somewhere. This reminds me of the "Day the Pain Died" article posted here the other day. ( http://news.ycombinator.com/item?i

If all the ids and classes are assigned during run-time, you're kinda SOL. Though Selenium does support other locator strategies like XPath, and even plain old JavaScript expressions to find an element. I would ask the the ExtJS folks how t

"Gui testing is inevitably harder anyway, even if there are tools" I agree. The Selenium project could really use some volunteers to look at the major JS frameworks out there and help make them more testable with Selenium (or WebDriver, whi

Well, with or without software on the plug, it's still $99 in revenue that can fund software development, right?

Many entrepreneurs get stumped on how to make money writing open source software. After a first look at Tonido's site, I kept wondering, "But how will they make money?"... And then I found the link to the Tonido Plug, and thought "Ah... Tha

Arduino is the Python of dev boards in that Python has an explicit goal of "batteries included" -- to include everything you need to be productive right away. Ironically, in the case of Arduino, batteries are technically not included, but

I'd like to know a and b, too. But Bob's point wasn't that C++ programs look cleaner. His point was that it's very obvious that if you're not careful in C++, you can can shoot yourself in the foot quite quickly, and therefore, you're less l

I agree. So much so that back when I first saw it last year, I sought out Steven Hazel (codepad.org's creator), and successfully convinced him to join my startup as co-founder at Sauce Labs. Codepad's tech is uber-cool. :-)
