Re: [testdrivendevelopment] How would you TDD a website front-end?

Alan,

Way back, I played with test-driving AWT and Java Swing UIs, starting 
with just jUnit. Given the availability of web driver libraries, you can 
do similar things much more easily.

In general, I tested the GUI with a test API to make sure things were 
wired up correctly. I tested the actual API to make sure the system 
worked correctly.

In 
https://github.com/gdinwiddie/EquineHoroscope/tree/master/src/test/java/com/gdinwiddie/equinehoroscope/acceptance 
you can see an example of re-using a test that drove the API creation to 
check the same result from the GUI by injecting a different adapter to 
talk with the system under test.
