UI toolkit [http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/]? IMHO, that is the best scripting suite to build postback-minimized webapps. It beats aspnet ajax for the simple fact that you don't make binary references to System.Web.Extensions and are not subject to the version conflict that got introduced between VS2005 and VS2008. My process for using these within ASPNET is: layout Default.aspx using yui-grids, build Controller.aspx to expose an API into the business logic (yes, I create faux-MVC webapps) and then plug in the UI controls and Ajax calls with jQuery or yui. Now, you can write functional unit tests against the API exposed by Controller.aspx and pay someone to create the UI scripts to test Default.aspx. Joy!
