I wouldn't be using this. Because static screenshots doesn't cover testing of dynamic behavior. For example when testing liquid layout I should be able to resize the window. Not mentioning testing hover effects on links or javascript effects.

Another big drawback would be the load times for the screenshots.
When I make a change in Textmate, I can cmd-tab into VMWare and refresh the browser in a couple seconds. I don't have to wait for the server to respond and download the images.
