Well, we certainly qualify for those two things. 
 
FWIW, for OFBiz, it doesn't seem to me that selenium would add that much
over good regression testing of the SECAs, services, actions, methods,
and other elements-- since inputs feed directly into services in a very
consistent and predictable way (unlike many other systems I have seen),
it would seem that good regression "harness" testing would uncover
almost everything everything except true "look and feel" or browser
quirk problems.  Selenium would be largely superfluous, IMO.

I first assumed that selenium was similar to the test suites in the perl
CPAN world-- automated regression testing of the libraries under a broad
variety of execution environments.  I was surprised to find out what it
really was.
