This is nice. When we did web testing before I moved to Cincom we
utilised the known properties of the server side code instead of
bouncing back to the web browser itself. Mostly because of:
a) Speed of running the tests
b) Ease of writing the tests
In the end we wanted to do testing like this - so I whole heartedly
support this idea. It's going on to the project backlog. Thanks for
bringing it to my attention.
Cheers,
Michael
