I just tried CoScripter, and it's very easy. Here is a sample script
to test Drupal 6 book feature:
http://services.alphaworks.ibm.com/coscripter/browse/script/1369

Notice that what you read on this page *is* the actual test, nothing
else involved. You can run it on your own local Drupal install. The
sentences containing "you" mean that human intervention is required.

There is a problem currently with this test, it fails to select the
right option in the book drop down menu. Still a neat idea imho.
