    I've been working with selenium since last year and it´s great for web test. It´s true that ajax have been a problem for selenium but the extensibility allows anything. The posibility of implemet new commands have allowed me, and my company, to solve the problems implementing personalized comands. Selenium: It works... and if it doesn´t you could make it work!
