A new version of SeasideTesting is available in the Cincom public
repository for VW7.6/Seaside 2.8 and VW7.7/Seaside 3.0 This release has
beeen tested against the version of Seaside included as parcels in these
VW releases.  The tutorial
(http://www.cdshaffer.com/david/Seaside/TestingComponents) has been
updated to reflect changes in this version.  Most noteable among the
changes are:

- Support for testing javascript through an external browser (tested
with Firefox only)
- Refactored to permit testing of remote (not in same-image) Seaside
applications -- useful for end-to-end testing
- Test classes do not need to use SeasideTesting-specific ancestor
(although some convenience provided if they do)

These changes are addressed in the tutorial (see sections 7 and 8).

This release is for VW-only.  I don't have any plans to update the
Squeak version.  Right now SeasideTesting development is driven by my
consulting needs.  Still, I don't think it would be that difficult to
get this working with some combination of "a Squeak" and some Seaside
version.
