Do they folks at Canoo have any stats on how many users of Webtest there ar=
e?  How many downloads are occurring?, Etc.?  Does Canoo still use Webtest =
in their projects?

Hi all,

WebTest is OpenSource as you know. If we would move the source code to GitH=
ub and make it easier for the community to do contributions on their own =
=96 would some of you be able / willing to spend time in contributing?
I also believe it would be very sad to let WebTest die as its core idea and=
 concept still are very valid and helpful even in actual development projec=
ts.

Could you give some feedback about if you could contribute?
Just send a =93+1=94 to the list, so we see, if it will be worth moving the=
 project.

Cheers,
Martin

It=92s quite the same for me. I=92m still using Webtest. I think, it=92s a =
very good tool. So far I could cover all I wanted with it. Ease of use, rep=
orting, possibilities to structure the tests and reusing packages, all that=
 is just fine.
So, I don=92t like to see it just fade away like that. Still I=92m thinking=
 about moving over to another tool as there is no activity or progress anym=
ore.

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=85 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?
