We have gwt unit (htmlunit) based tests and webdriver/firefox based tests. 
Slowly we are moving more and more towards webdriver/firefox testing.

So much of our client side code is async (server request, refreshes) that 
is it painful to test in a unit test.

Also webdriver/firefox and some abstraction (such as page object pattern - 
read good programming/factoring out) means you could swap implementation 
without changing your tests. Very handy for refactoring/rearchitecting. Not 
that unlikely in fast move web tech.

When GWT 3.0 is out I'd be interested in looking again at doing very narrow 
unit tests in a more isolated way.

Cheers
