[Building Sakai] Automated testing?

[John Bush]

checkout, http://confluence.sakaiproject.org/display/QA/Selenium

We do an extensive amount of testing using Selenium for everything
from regression tests, to generating loads tests.  Corey McGarrahan is
our resident expert on the subject, he's on PTO today and tomorrow,
but I'm sure if you have any specific questions he'd be happy to help
you.  Sakai's confluence should get you started.

If you know, or don't mind learning XPath you'll move through it
pretty fast.  Once of the biggest challenges was working through the
file upload use cases.   We've worked through that by generating java
code using our own template (but you can pick from several scripting
languages).

There are a few presentations at past sakai confluences we've done as
well, search around for those:
