Automated tests have an important role in the longevity of your product. There are pros and cons to having an automation suite, but I think the pros fully out weigh the cons. That being the case, how do you build an automation framework that will outlast the tools that are being used?

In running functional automation testing, it has always been difficult to know whether the AJAX call has finished. Most people just put a Thread.Sleep() in the code, but it clutters up things and isn't accurate. To handle this appropriately, we found a way to watch for those JQuery AJAX calls and drive the automation accordingly.
