By Nathan Lopez - Aug. 17, 2007

Hi - I have a website that I am looking to 'user-acceptance' test. For that, I would like to build some web-test automation tools. What are my options? What is the community using? Would love to learn about options available. Thanks in advance.

    Take a look at Watir - it is a ruby project. From the site - 'Watir is a simple open-source library for automating web browsers. It allows you to write tests that are easy to read and easy to maintain. It is optimized for simplicity and flexibility. Watir drives browsers the same way people do. It clicks links, fills in forms, presses buttons. Watir also checks results, such as whether expected text appears on the page.' Good luck!

    Take a look at HTMLUnit. It is similar to JUnit in philo, and can be used to set up Unit Tests for your web app.

    try web2test. It uses Capture&Replay so there is no particular programming knowledge needed for creation and maintenance of test scripts. Additionally web2test provides a scripting interface in Jython and Groovy. web2test runs under Windows and Linux and supports Firefox, Internet Explorer, Mozilla and Seamonkey. Test scripts are browser and platform independent and tolerant to GUI changes. A 100% component based approach allows detailed and complex checks. The tool can be integrated with HP TestDirector for Quality Center and supports the testing of AJAX applications and data driven and distributed testing.

    Under: http://en.web2test.de/ you can download a free trial version.

    I would recommend selenium for automation if you want to test on firefox.

    You can record tests in firefox and play them back.
