OK, to elaborate: I have a open source project with consistent pain points around css and browser testing. Example concrete issues for this project are a) multi-language support, as varying text length will often throw off the aesthetics of the layout, and b) recently, a mysterious failure in geodjango google-map drawing where in some corner-cases, the map silently fails to draw.
Really, I'm looking for a framework for a human tester to be able to look at a sequence of html pages generated with different test data in the database. I want the tester to be able make a 'pretty/ugly/ horribly wrong' call without having to do a bunch of clicking or data entry. Ideally, they would just click 'next' on some widget, which would pull up the next URL/test db combination.
