PDF description

This Short Cut is an introduction to building automated web tests using two tools, twill and Selenium. twill is a simple web scripting language that can be used to automate web tests, while Selenium is a web testing framework that runs in any browser and can be used to test complex web sites that make extensive use of JavaScript.

The best way to use this Short Cut is to run through the examples. We expect that within an hour you can start writing your own functional tests in either twill or Selenium, and within a day you will understand most, if not all, of the possibilities and the limitations of these tools.

This a great, and quick read for web developers interested in functional testing. My only complaint is that it hasn't been made into a print book! The tools they cover, twill and selenium, are quite useful if you haven't had the chance to use them yet.
