Question

Hey Developers,
I have been using Selenium Web Driver for my automated tests and it is quite powerful for what it does. The Selenium IDE for Firefox is ok but I think hand written codes work better for my complex projects. It's lot easier to organize too. However, I noticed that using the Web Driver the major drawback is that I cannot utilize an existing browser session.
What I'd really like to do is start my browser, go to my website, login and run a particular test. If it fails, I will make my quick changes and run it again. Since, the WebDriver launches a whole new browser and a whole new session, the test has to login, navigate to the right pages, do any prerequisite steps, etc. This just wastes time and costs bandwidth as well. I tend to run selenium tests over the cloud and I want to minimize my costs and time as much as possible.
Is there any other similar testing tool that I can run against an existing browser session? And what are some reliable if not totally free testing tools out there?
