I would probably add on the test-script front that I've yet to find a testing solution that's of any value. Unit testing w/mocks is the stupidest thing I've heard of. I'd end up writing 5 times as much "test" code as production code. And you know what, unless I'm a complete idiot I'm going to know that the code I just wrote doesn't work as soon as I exercise it.
Sure the concept is great, have a big library of automated tests that cover all the system so you have the freedom to make changes and just hit a button to make sure you didn't break anything or introduce regressions. But when I look at the bugs we've had over the years they're all related to UI/browser issues or other corner cases and not anything that would have been picked up with a unit-test tool.
Please, someone tell me different. Seriously... I'd love to find that tool that gets me that idea concept, but I've just not found it.
