Just to add another into the realm – try iMacros from https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/3863

Daniel,
I agree that CoScripter looks pretty sweet. However, just out of curiosity, what makes you want to toss Selenium IDE out the window. Is it the natural language support? The shared repository of tests that people can vote on? The test execution running in a sidebar? Or is it something else?

Again, just curious! Personally, I’m big fan of the natural language approach taken by CoScripter… If that’s something people want (besides me), I’d like to implement that in Selenium, too.

Cheers,

That video is hilarious…there are only 2 houses in Palo Alto that are under $1MM. Classic.

Hi Mike! Thanks a bunch for the link love and for spreading the message around! I must say that I have been enjoying CoScripter (Formerly Koala) quite a bit, specially for its potential benefits as a training tool and bringing learning into the browser session in a social context. That is quite interesting to be honest and I am surely hoping to be playing some more with it as time goes by!

Thanks again for the link!

Mike, you’ve just made my day.

At work, we’re just starting a new project: it’ll be to bring widespread selenium phpunit coverage to our main application.

Ever since I saw the original demo of Koala, I’ve wanted to toss the selenium IDE out of the window, and just make use of it.

Now I almost can.

HURRAY.
