Automatically rerun failed scripts

Sahi can create a suite of failed scripts and trigger it at the end of a suite run.

Trigger testcases from a web interface

We have released the first version of the web based interface for running Sahi scripts.
The web based testrunner allows us to easily trigger testcases on a remote machine running Sahi.

Syntax highlighting helps easily see script errors and match brackets in the Evaluate Expression box and Script Editor.
