A discontinued JavaScript framework for automated cross-browser testing.
DalekJS was a JavaScript framework for automated cross-browser testing that allowed developers to write and run tests across multiple browsers without requiring browser plugins. It provided a unified API for interacting with web pages and verifying functionality across different browser environments.
