Hey Sailaja
I'm working on automating tests for JSF. There are many frameworks out
there that support javascript, or claim to support it. I was hoping to
hear some opinions on any of them from people who have already tried
them, so that I would not have to go through the exercise of checking
out each and every one myself... Anyhow, thanks for the pointer.
