[python-win32] automating Internet Explorer for functional testing of web pages

[Chris Cottee]

Hi,
	I'm trying to use Internet explorer (automated via win32com) to test
our website (which uses frames and javascript heavily) and I wondered if
anyone could answer a couple of questions:
1. Has anyone done this already? (I know about PAMIE, I was after any other
resources that might be about the place)
2. When I use WithEvents IE slows right down and I can't interact with it
any more, it's like it's blocking waiting for some response to the event. Is
this normal ? Or am I doing something wrong ? My code looks like this

class EventSink(object):
    """ an event sink for the com events"""
    def OnError(self,*someargs):
        print "Error",someargs
    def OnNavigateComplete2(self,*args):
        print "complete"    ,args

class IE(object):
   def __init__(self):
	"""abbreviated"""   
	self._ie = Dispatch('InternetExplorer.Application')
      self.events=WithEvents(self._ie,EventSink)

3. More of an IE question than a python question: does anyone know how to
detect JavaScript errors via the WebBrowserControl2 interface?

Thanks,
