postgresql.org doesn't have too much functionality that would really
benefit from cross-browser testing. The CSS layer leverages Bootstrap,
so we defer cross-browser compatibility to that library. JavaScript is
pretty minimal, though granted it is used on a critical path, i.e. the
download page[1].

That all said, I think we'd get the most impact having tests around the
other functional units, and I think the Django test client can get us
pretty far, though if it turns out we'd benefit from Selenium I'd be
happy to consider it.
Thanks,
