2. what type of platform does your site run on?

or is it completely custom? if completely custom, how was it written and in what language(s)? (ie, pure HTML vs. PHP etc.)

the reason i ask is that these days most sites are written on some sort of platform or framework, whether it's wordpress or django or what-have-you, and there are testing tools available.. in fact unit testing systems exist for every language and all the big frameworks/platforms that vastly simplify and isolate the test process from core code.

hence the time/cost will depend on how your site is written. for sure this is not something that you can fully automate the setup and trust the results. there will be set up involved in targeting each element/function you want to test, but depending on how your site is set up this might not be that big a pain. or it might be a real big pain.

that's why i ask..
