There was some discussion in the last meeting about
running headless UI tests and I thought I would pass
along some info I've come across in my relentless quest
for perfect software...  ;-)

Running Selenium under Maven sans head:

The real magic comes from Xvfb which is easily installed under [k]ubuntu via
the "apt-get install xvfb" command.  YMMV.  Void() where prohibited.

Happy Festivus!
