Adam Goucher: "HARdy HAR HAR" + "The JS Executor! Flash & Flex! HTML5!"

Abstract: All WebDriver does is drive a browser. Nothing more, nothing less. Which means there are a lot of things that are out of scope to the Selenium project that are handy to have for scripting -- like HTTP response codes and hooking into 3rd party application execution environments (like Flex and Flash). WebDriver provides the means to do both of these, if you know how. This talk will cover how to wire your scripts through a scriptable proxy (BrowserMob) to get at the raw HTTP traffic information, as well as the JS Executor, which allows for such magic as driving Flex and Flash through WebDriver.

Bio: Adam has been doing functional automation for a lot longer than most, and now does it exclusively with Selenium. While he has not [yet] written a book on automation, he was one of the two editors of the testing compilation Beautiful Testing.
