Random text only goes so far when debugging as you don't > necessarily know what the field SHOULD contain. The Selenium IDE plug-in records a macro when you fill out the form. You can run, edit and save that macro, or export it to a half dozen different languages, then copy and edit those scripts, etc. I record whole session scenarios, export them to Perl and run them through the Selenium Remote Control server. I manage them with Perl's Test::Harness. I am slowly building up a regression test suite for a commercial site. I tried to do it in PHP, but couldn't find a functional test harness that wasn't OO based. (Unfortunately, after 40 years of procedural programming, mostly in assembly languages, I have no class.) One note, the IDE will not import scripts once they are exported. You can only load scripts that were saved. These appear to be an xhtml format.
