Hi Jenn,
Are we talking Integration or Unit testing?

Selenium is for front-end "integration testing" to make sure the browser 
is rendering to your expectations.

Mark Redar and Martin Haye presented on getting started with Selenium in 
Raleigh:

There are a plethora of "unit testing" libraries (I'm assuming you're 
talking Javascript?), where you are testing small pieces of code -- 
i.e., "Is the output of a function what I expect?" A lot of folks use 
build tools (npm, grunt, etc.) to compile, unit test, integration test, 
lint, and minify their code.

There are so many options that it wouldn't make sense to go any further 
without knowing what you are trying to do, and how you're organizing 
your code.

I haven't used Cucumber and haven't heard much about it recently.  It 
seems to be a good TDD workflow tool for turning Use Cases into Unit Tests.
