http://webtest.canoo.com/webtest/manual/keyCharacteristics.html is a
good short summary and you can use it to compare WebTest to other tools.

One very important point is that the tests should run in a deterministic
way, what is not necessary the case for all "concurrents" (see recent
post about Selenium: http://www.infoq.com/news/2007/08/selenium-pain).

If you have managers in your audience, it is always good to show the
recorder, this is something that they understand ;-)

The webserver doesn't matter.

Concerning Ajax: XMLHttpRequest works since a long time but AJAX
libraries often make an heavy use of js features. Many of these already
works and upcoming HtmlUnit release contains a huge list of improvements
but it may not cover everything your AJAX libraries use (this doesn't
mean that it is difficult to fix).

Marc.
