Automated Testing Comes To Facebook Connect

Facebook today announced an officially supported method of running Unit Tests against your Facebook Connect integrations by way of the 3rd party application Watir.

To date, there is no easy method to execute Unit Testing on the Facebook.com domain for formal Facebook applications due to the complexity of the site, session keys, and authentication procedures.
