It's quite the same for me. I'm still using Webtest. I think, it's a very g=
ood tool. So far I could cover all I wanted with it. Ease of use, reporting=
, possibilities to structure the tests and reusing packages, all that is ju=
st fine.
So, I don't like to see it just fade away like that. Still I'm thinking abo=
ut moving over to another tool as there is no activity or progress anymore.

I happen to like using Webtest and find it truly disappointing that the pro=
duct has slipped into the state is has.  I wonder if the sponsors would be =
willing to donate it or host it elsewhere... or if that would even help.  I=
t is difficult for me to gauge the level of interest or use in the product =
via this mailing list.  It was once much more active and leads me to believ=
e that most have moved to another tool.  I work with a test team that are n=
ot developers, and the ability to write test scripts using Ant XML is much =
easier for them to grasp than writing Java code.

I was able to get a version of Webtest running on htmlunit 2.12.  But the c=
hanges in 2.14 and dependencies are a little more daunting and I have not h=
ad the time required to get a good feel for how all of the pieces work toge=
ther so that I can make updates.

Hi all,

Webtest uses htmlunit 2.10.
What are the chances that webtest will be updated to use htmlunit 2.14
or we should migrate to other tools for automated testing of web applicatio=
ns?
