I *think* so - but I must admit, in-browser/js testing is an area I  
need to work on (not that I write much js these days). The standard  
setup is to use Webrat, which imitates a browser from Rails'  
perspective, and provides easy ways to follow links, press buttons,  
fill in forms, etc.

I have heard of people tying it into selenium though, as a webrat  
replacement (or rather, making webrat talk to selenium, I think)
