I took different approaches in a few areas (Selenium WebDriver instead of Watin, heavier reliance on standard MVC conventions), but it all came about because of the presentation you gave to the C4MVC group a few years ago. Thanks for providing the inspiration. :) Hi Jimmy, just an FYI, but I actually created a project based on your approach to full-system testing:

When we used Gallio, which allows parallel execution of tests, we had about 5-600 test run in an hour. We also tweaked the browser driver usage to re-use browser instances across tests (like connection pooling). But because these were not run in our normal CI build, it wasn't that big of a deal.

On an average project, how long does your UITest suite take to run if so? Does WatinDriver actually open a web browser window?
