Sounds like op is manually fuzz testing.

Yes, but the important thing is the evaluation function of what happens after random actions - his intuitive expectations and things ripping his skin. A web fuzzer can click around randomly like he does, but it can't know things like "clicking here ought to have set the button" or "this is twice as slow as it should be, why". It can detect things like crashes or segfaults or JS code throwing exceptions, but not those other things.
