If the bugs are FF vs. IE then it should be possible to run Selenium
targetting one or the other for specific tests (or better yet, specific test
cases). One of the options with selenium runner is the profile, the browser
to be executed.

When you get to more complex issues, say Mac IE vs. Windows IE ... or
different versions of IE, it's much more painful.

Microsoft is doing its best to ensure that we can never test IE 6, by making
IE 7 a required update!

We recently had a few browser specific issues,
http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAPESTRY-1141 (already fixed)
http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAPESTRY-1129 (same as an old tacos
bug, i.e. fix is already known)

Now, i wouldn't like closing them without some sort of browser specific
testing (since the issues are such)....

In tacos we had added several selenium based tests that we would
manually run in every major browser now and then.
Even though they weren't integrated in the build process, i really
enjoyed (and still do ) the confidence they provide.

Now i've seen a bit of Howard's code that interacts with selenium
programatically and:
- Can we use a similar approach?
- Are those tests integrated with maven?
- Who actually runs them? (a browser? rhino?)
- Any other approach?
