Background:
We have web based product and a growing suite of automated Selenium tests which runs on a continuous integration system for every commit. Sometimes a test fails, and sometimes it’s quite hard to find out what happened.

Previously we recorded and saved a video for every run (using recordMyDesktop), but this requires more CPU and disk space than we could spare.

Question:
Is there a Firefox plugin or a similar tool for recording DOM changes, and later visually playing them back, preferably on another machine?

    We previously used recordMyDesktop on Ubuntu but also noticed it was too CPU intensive.

    At TestingBot (Cloud based Selenium Grid) we now use ffmpeg and x11grab which is a lot nicer CPU wise. It’s also pretty easy to set up.
