So I have been testing software professionally for over ten years and in that time the web and mobile
have dramatically changed the sorts of things that I get asked to test. It is a little ironic then that
the systems marketed at testers to do their jobs have largely gone unchanged since the mid 90s.

Testing is a creative process, but the systems available to us right now use a rote, robotic, do this,
do that, expect this result approach. And that’s not very creative at all. But those of us on the
forefront testing know a better way to do things. Mindmaps. Yes, those fun little bubble diagrams you
used back in highschool to brainstorm are ideally suited for capturing and managing test ideas.

There are a number of mindmapping applications floating around that have been co-opted by the testing

• The stated long-term goal for the WebDriver project is to be the reference implementation of the W3C browser automation standard from a client perspective

• The browser vendors [w|s]ould provide 'shims' which know about the WebDriver JSON protocol

• Google and Opera do already, Mozilla will shortly with Marionette

• PhantomJS (non-vendor) is 'ready'

• The Se project produces one for IE (which would be happily handed off to MS should they come to the table)

• shims will likely come in two types; jar or executables (depending on platform)

• WebDriver comes in two flavours; WebDriver and Remote WebDriver (see every other naming rant I've gone on...)
