Just to complete why you may want to frontend testing, two minutes of looking at aista.com :

  • website is doing double loading (perf)
  • tabulation order is out of the box (usability)
  • menus don't have click away behaviour (usability)
  • links don't indicate state (accessibility)
  • etc

Frontend testing are to automate and checking those. If you don't care about those, guess we don't have the same definition of frontend quality.

edit: fix typo
