 * There's some stuff going on with some of the UsabilityInitiative extension, not yet automated.
 * Some talk of doing Selenium-based browser-hosted testing but this has not yet been implemented.
 * Some Selenium tests
 * Using HTML rendering engine (Gecko? WebKit?) to run user interface tests
 * some JS testing notes
 * Once you get QUnit tests, have a look at TestSwarm, a distributed JS tester.

Performance testing
It would likely be wise to set up some automated performance testing; eg checking how much time, how many DB queries, how much memory used etc during various operations (maybe the same tests running above).

While performance indicators can vary based on environment and non-deterministic factors, logging and graphing the results of multiple iterations from a consistent testing environment can help us with two important things:
 * Identify performance regressions when we see an unexpected shift in the figures
 * Confirm performance improvements when we make some optimization

See for instance Mozilla's performance test graphs for Firefox: (more FF stuff via https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Tinderbox )
 * http://graphs.mozilla.org/dashboard/?tree=Firefox
