I'm tooting my own horn here... my open-source test tool TestMaker has been using Jython as an embedded scripting engine for the past year. The TestMaker community (now 38,000 strong) has been using Jython to script tests like this and it's worked out great.
One thing I wish the article showed is that with the right environment, running the Jython-based test scripts multiple times and concurrently is an easy way to do scalability and performance (load) testing.
