comment What techniques are available to determine which browsers to test?
This is a pretty solid way to start. One other suggestion once you have a site up and running is look at your analytics (Google analytics etc.) assuming you are using them. Once of the things my company found is that our user base was much more IE focused than we thought with something close to 80% of our customers using a flavor of that. It can help you focus your time on where you want your effort to be.

comment How do I download a file using Selenium's WebDriver?
welcome to sqa.stackexchange.com. This is a nicely detailed answer but the OP was pretty clear about wanting to download a document vs checking an image. The answers are most effective when the address the question asked.

Out of curiosity why would you want to do this? Are you trying to use the test to generate data you would use in later tests?

Is your team able to build tools yourself (skill & time wise)? Can it be a combination of tools? Is there a preferred language(c#, python, etc.)?

comment Looking for a content-aware library for regression testing of PDF files
Allessandro - I am not sure what gave you that idea. I just used it on some the other day. Take a look at the mention here: scootersoftware.com/moreinfo.php?zz=moreinfo_compare The when comparing a pdf it does a compare on the underlying text in the documents. I do know you can customize rule sets to specify white space parameters and such.

comment SafariDriver is not responding after opening a URL
Rakesh - What happens if you comment out the System.out.println(driver.getTitle());? Does the rest of the code execute?

comment Testing with no QA team in an agile development environment
Just to piggy back a bit on Lyndon's answer since I agree with what he had to say. You might be sure that you are tasking the testing effort along with the dev effort to be sure that it is fully accounted for as a part of each story. The iteration should not be done until that those tasks are complete and the entire story is accepted.

Siddharth -Are you testing the date picker itself or do you just need to set the date? If you just need to set the date to move through the functionality of the page can you set the date in field?

comment Test scenario for Android porting test
Hi urvish - Out of curiosity what sort of porting are you doing? Is it porting the OS to another device? Is it porting an app from a different platform to Android? The more specific you can be the better answers that the community can provide.

Not surprising at all - though you did specify authoritative, not free. ;)

So is the record and playback requirement because the tester you are helping is not able to write code?
