It is possible to use Selenium on pages that do dynamic content loading. It requires a lot of waiting for elements with known IDs or consistent XPaths to be present before proceeding to the next step. At my company we've developed a wrapper toolkit around Selenium (it can use other drivers, too, but I've only experience with the Selenium part) which allows us to write automated tests against that type of site more easily. Unfortunately I can't give you it but I recommend you do something similar, I don't think there are any automated web testing kits that make it straightforward.

Testing this kind of site will always be slow and unreliable, as with any UI testing and particularly network-dependent testing. But it can be automated with Selenium.
