Hi Jacques,

Selenium tests cannot be unit tests in OFBiz because it requires firing up
the server. You can consider them part of the integration tests (existing
functionality). In fact, I would consider selenium tests to be functional
tests (higher than integration) ->
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Functional_testing

So yeah we can add them, but I don't think we can do that to the raw
unit-tests (at least in the context discussed in the other proposal thread)
