Thank you indeed for your suggestions. I understand your design does not foresee the open(url) method in DslContext. For our current design it is a bit restrictive though, because we rely on the fact that each class knows its relative url, and it can open the root page it represents in the testing environment.
We also ruled out to extend your DSL, because we build a DSL which is has much higher level method like createBasket() or cancelOrder(), and we want to use Tellurium to implement these methods. In fact it similar to your data driven framework, in a sense that it may open many pages. And those tests does use openUrl (eg. TelluriumIssuesModule), but I am reluctant to start using the DD module, becuase its supporting classes are far too complex for my needs. So I think I will stick use SeleniumConnector in my framework, probably I will patch the 0.6 source to make it singleton (i can send the patch if you wish), and I still hope that I was able to convince you to add the open method to DslContext sometimes in the near future ;).
