This document provides an introduction to FuncUnit, a JavaScript functional testing framework. It discusses barriers to testing JavaScript applications, how FuncUnit addresses these barriers through its easy to use API and ability to simulate user interactions across browsers. It also provides examples of using FuncUnit to test applications written with jQuery and without page reloads.
