Folks,

We are evaluating enterprise-wide automated testing tools. Would anyone know of a website with known issues that we can use to do a comparative test of all the tools? I am aware of Grove's test page (http://mothereffingtoolconfuser.com/), but we are looking for a full site that would enable us to test a range of functionalities including but not limited to:

- Ability to test across domains
- Test multiple pages on a site
- Schedule scans
- Show results over time

And so on. Any recommendations?  We'd rather not have to build a whole new site just for this purpose.

Thanks

Jay

I was afraid someone would ask that. I'll post the site as soon as I remember what it is :-)
