Test::WWW::Selenium seems interesting, but I could use an example it would be useful to use, versus the standard techniques. It is useful when you want to test Javascript code, for example to test that your client-side validation is working properly, or that your onclick handlers are working properly. From the docs, it's not clear if there are restrictions about where the related Perl testing code must reside. Does it need to be on the same server as Selenium and the application? There are no restrictions: you can have the testing code on one server, the selenium_server (which acts as a reverse-proxy to the application under test) on another server and the application under testing on a third server. Note that the server where the testing code is run most be able to launch a web browser. It is more convenient if testing code and selenium_server are on the same machine, but this is not a requirement. Regards Mattia P.S.: please note that you can not have multiple tests running concurrently and using the same selenium_server

automated web testing with selenium
Hey there. I was just interviewed by qapodcast.com about Selenium, a cool new automated web testing tool. It's really great, and super easy to use. Also, yesterday Test::WWW::Selenium was uploaded to CPAN, so Selenium can now be driven by perl! Anyways, check out the podcast at http://qapodcast.com Cheers, Luke -- Luke Closs PureMessage Developer There is always time to juggle in the Sophos Zone.
