Doing some lightweight test automatization

Most of the time when you are building up a website you constantly do some code and click testing. After you have finished up your work most of the testcases you could figure out should work.

Of course there are more elegant way to test things like writing unittest while doing some test driven developement. But still it does not make the functional testing go away. How the things work out within browser? Does this javascript snippet that I wrote work? There are plenty of places where things can go wrong.

I've been time to time tried to find out time to test what Selenium can do. Selenium is a tool for browser level testing automatisation. Basically it means that with selenium you can record the normal clickings that you do add some checkings for example if some element or text is present at the page. 

There is a 2 minute video that shows how easy it is to start. I already installed Selenium IDE to my firefox and I'm quite sold.
