So I was thinking about how best to set up a continuous build, and it
occurred to me that I can't do it on a server because there is no UI
environment and therefore no browser in which to run functional tests.
I may therefore just have to set up hudson on my windows box and let
it run nightly. However, I still need to figure out a good practice
for doing a headless build. (My friend at Fox needs this also.) Anyone
have any suggestions?

Thanks,
-Matt

Here are more discussions, even with Hudson,

In a long run, htmlunit is a good path, but not sure if it is powerful enough to drive the same Selenium tests.

Thanks,

Jian

what we do at my work is that hudson uses a selenium server on another
box that has a X and firefox installed. that may be the easiest way to
do it

Yes we do the same but not with Hudson though. The build box instructs an agent which is a windows machine to run the tests against different environments and with different browsers, I would recommend to set up Selenium Grid as well on the server. This would give us the opportunity to test Tellurium against different browsers and our implementation of Selenium Grid that I think no one has tried so far...

Perhaps we can create a Todo list for Tellurium lab. Matt needs to
take
the lead for this. I remember Mikhail was very interested some time
ago. Any
member can join to work out the plan.

Thanks,

Jian
