Cloud and open source meet to test Web apps

,----[ Quote ]
| Sauce Labs also uses cloud services to make 
| testing with Selenium testing easier than 
| running on your own server infrastructure. 
| Sauce On-Demand, is a hosted offering that 
| allows you to remotely test web 
| applications across various browsers in the 
| cloud.
| 
| Huggins said this is an intersection 
| between open source and the cloud that 
| makes sense. By offering a cloud-based 
| version of Selenium, users have the ability 
| to parallelize their test and use cloud 
| resources on demand in order to take 
| advantage of a large number of instances in 
| the cloud and get test results and bug 
| reports must faster.
