Hi,
I've got some text that looks like this:
Lorem [ipsum] dolor sit amet, consectetur
adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor
incididunt ut [labore] et [dolore] magna aliqua.
and I want to make it look like this:

I need to do some basic website testing (log into account, add item to
cart, fill out and submit forms, check out, etc.). What modules would
be good to use for webapp testing like this?
