INSTALL THE SELENIUM SERVER

Selenium is written in Java. So you need Java. Ubuntu users should already have Java installed (/usr/bin/java).

Then download the latest Selenium Server jar file from http://seleniumhq.org/download. Put it anywhere. You can run the server with this command:

java -jar selenium-server.jar -h

INSTALL Xvfb

Xvfb or X virtual frame buffer is an X server that enables you to run X windows applications without showing any screen output. If you run this with a Selenium server, you can run your tests on various browsers on a server with no monitor and without X windows installed. See an example of how to do this in Test::WWW::Selenium::More::Manual::RunningTests.

To install Xvfb on Ubuntu:

sudo apt-get install xvfb
