I want to automate actions in firebug JavaScript console. ie. Is it possible to load a page from url in firefox then after the page is loaded run a js code in console? I have googled for solutions and found one:Running_Automated_Test_Suite with FBTest

is there any other ways to do that? Which one is easier? Some ways w/ windows cmd-line/bash scripts in linux/in mac? Selenium?
