Telerik was proud to be a Gold Sponsor at the very first Smashing Conference this week, held by our friends from Smashing Magazine. The Conference was located in Freiburg, Germany September 17th-19th. According to Wikipedia, the name Freiburg means "fortified town of free citizens".

Watch this video and you’ll learn some tricks for dealing with locators, dynamic content, and tables. Please note this is a fairly generic webinar. I spent most of my time using WebDriver in C#.
