Just to make clear the test scripts need to run on the local client machines
and not on the server.

And yes javascripts/ java applets are the ways which I was thinking to
trigger my test scripts
on the local client machines, and maybe send back the test status to the
server via http.

Maybe I ll look into directly launching my existing python test scripts
through java applets, instead
of rewriting test scripts in java.
