Some of the highlights in this release

Upgraded underlying Selenium to 2.20.0

Simplified usage for Arquillian Drone with WebDriver and Selenium. We provide dependency chain artifacts which will grab all required dependencies. Use either one of them you need, both of them or even combined with Arquillian Graphene.

What is Arquillian?

Arquillian is open source software that empowers you to test JVM-based applications more effectively. Created to defend the software galaxy from bugs, Arquillian brings your test to the runtime so you can focus on testing your application's behavior rather than managing the runtime. Using Arquillian, you can develop a comprehensive suite of tests from the convenience of your IDE and run them in any IDE, build tool or continuous integration environment.
