I know it's not exactly the intended use, but does this allow one to effectively run a headless browser with JS from a server with Node installed? (Right now I'm generating server-side snapshots of Raphael.JS drawings with wkhtmltoimage, but I'd much rather get the actual SVG and run it through Inkscape.)

From the video, it appears to run a standard browser and pretend to be a person, and creates a video from it. Or something. Seems kind of odd.
When you run a browser test on a cloud service, how do you know if it looked good or not? We created the video recording part of Sauce's testing service so you can see how the browser test worked in our cloud.
I don't think that is what you would want to do with this. It is really made for automated testing with specific browsers.
