1. Download tests:
   

   $ svn co http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/qa/people/ppitonak/testapp-tests/
2. Start  Selenium Server together with Apache Tomcat 6 incl. deployed testapp (you can also do it separately [1])
   

   $ mvn cli:execute-phase
   maven2> selenium-tomcat6

   
   (build will automatically download apache-tomcat-6.0.26.zip distribution (you can also point to downloaded one [2]) and also resolve current snapshot of testapp.war)
3. On the separate console start test suite in Firefox
   

   $ mvn cli:execute-phase
   maven2> firefox

   
   (you must have firefox executable on $PATH, but you can also point to specific browser [3])

[1] Start Selenium Server or Container separately

If you want just start Apache Tomcat 6 with deployed testapp application, use tomcat6 alias instead:

$ mvn cli:execute-phase
maven2> tomcat6

If you want to start only Selenium Server, use selenium-only CLI alias:

$ mvn cli:execute-phase
maven2> selenium-only

[2] Point to locally downloaded server installation

If you have already downloaded the distribution of apache-tomcat-6.0.26.zip, you can point to it without need of letting the build obtain it from internet.

For this purpose, redefine maven property tomcat6x.installer.url.unix (resp. tomcat6x.installer.url.windows) with own URL:

     $ mvn verify -Dtomcat6x.installer.url.unix=file:/path/to/local/apache-tomcat-6.0.26.zip

     (you can also setup it in settings.xml or profiles.xml as property)

[3] Point to custom browser

Use maven property browser to specify browser executable:

     $ mvn verify -Dbrowser="*firefox /path/to/local/firefox"

     (you can also setup it in settings.xml or profiles.xml as property)
