Good luck to you on your way. May be I am wrong but I think swat is still might be useful for others, time will show. But last thought - smoke tests are not about specific frameworks you mentioned , this is just a way to get know that a web application is alive after deploy. There are a plenty of web servers and web frameworks but often people maintaining servers does not care/ know about the internal side , they just want to be sure that application is alive. I call it smoke tests. I respect your way, seriously, but let we close our discussion , do not you mind?
