Hi,
I understand that Selenium by design requires a full-fledged browser,
but isn't that also one of its greatest features? By running your
tests using FF or IE, you can be sure they do work in their target
environment, regardless of browser bugs.
So yes, the htmlunit approach makes testing easier to integrate with
CI, but it doesn't give you the same results. This may be acceptable
for many simple testcases though.
I just looked over the jWebUnit 2.x website very quickly, so I may be
missing something. But how is test case writing with jWebUnit easier
than using Selenium's IDE or DSL syntax?
Cheers,
-Ralph.

Hi Daniel,
Some advantages of using jWebUnit to test a web application are:
- easier test case writing,
- faster test case running,
- No graphic server is needed with the engine "htmlunit", so the
integration into a continuous integration system is easier (no
browser is needed),
- Soon, you will use an engine for Selenium to run your tests
directly in your browser.

Hi ,
A snapshot repository is available at: http://maven.openqa.org/
Have you try jWebUnit (http://jwebunit.sourceforge.net/index.html)
instead of Selenium for your functional tests? With jWebUnit, you
can
run your tests with different engines as htmlunit or Selenium (the
Selenium engine is available trough SVN). You will use the htmlunit
engine to execute your tests in a background mode (continuous
integration) and the selenium engine in a visual mode.
It's been a while since I looked at jWebUnit, and I'm currently using
Selenium; what is the advantage of using jWebUnit as you describe
instead of using Selenium directly? Do you have an URL with more
info on
the subject?
TIA,
Daniel Serodio
