ASP.NET Web Application Testing Experiences

In our project, we have 20 simple web controls, 8 composite web controls including Ajaxable Custom Grid. And all modules are developed dependent to these controls.

And now I afraid to change a control, because it effects modules more then I think.

It's too late I know but I need to write some test cases for my controls.

I searched web and find WatiN. It look good, but I need to know is it effective ?

And also I want to hear your experiences on WatiN or other tools. If you have different solution / technic to test your web applications/core custom controls, I want to learn details, problems you faced.

Thanks for all the replies !

Selenium has been a great tool for me. It provides an IDE in firefox to create tests manually, and has a test runner that can be fairly easily automated. It's backed/developed by ThoughtWorks who are quite solid with their work, so it will not likely disappear anytime soon.

Some of the features of selenium:

  • Works with most major browsers (not sure about Google Chrome)
  • Support for javascript (can write cases to check javascript values)
  • Supports Java, C#, Ruby, Perl, PHP, & Python

    +100 for Selenium. I used it for regression testing at my last job (a high traffic public website), and it greatly increased my confidence that a release was not going to break the site.
