The project at work is starting to come together. We (Henry Houdmont and me) almost have a working prototype and I think we’ll be able to show it tomorrow at one of the weekly meetings. The project is about functional testing for front-end developers. It basically comes to this: you create a site, you create some sort of test for that site to check if it works like it should, you submit that test to our website and you receive results of the tests executed on the website on the servers dedicated to this project.
The advantage of this project is that you don’t have to test everything manually but just check some settings, put in some descriptions and press a few buttons to get your results in a nice overview. For the people who think that there already are methods to do this: you’re right but we add screenshot functionality to check for the smallest CSS errors and represent everything in a fancy way.
I’ll probably put a demo screen-cast online in a few days.
Cheers
Bert
