Hi all,

I'd be interested in hearing how a few of the email list are using webtest in their projects. I've used it regularly, but lightly, for over a year on a project (for light regression testing and for data population) and am interested in ramping up my usage. I had gotten bitten by javascript issues (i.e. javascript the browser supports wasn't supported by rhino ), so haven't pushed for full-ui testing. Also, there have been many changes since my curent version of webtest (htmlunit, click-o-mat, groovy),etc, so I wanted to pick the hive-mind about current "best practices"

I'd actually like to see this information on the wiki as I think it would be helpful reference.

Here are few questions: -How extensively do you use it (i.e. every UI interaction on every page, or just the main paths?) -Do you use webtest in conjunction with junit? -Who writes and owns the scripts (qa or developers)? -Does qa group use the tool also? -How have your experiences been with webtest in compared with the high-priced scripty tools?

Thanks,
