SWAT 3.0 Released

We are very excited to announce the release of SWAT 3.0.  The biggest announcements are the new support of Chrome on the Windows OS and Safari on OSX.  In addition we now support calling SWAT from the command line independent of any test runner tool.   Finally we have made a roughly 30% improvement on the speed of SWAT running against the IE browser.  As usual we have also fixed a number of bugs and smaller issues that are detailed in the complete release notes.
