Selenium is a widely-used and very useful tool for automated web testing. This article is a very short primer designed to get you up and running Selenium Tests in Groovy in your Maven projects.

Last time, I introduced some of the new Groovy support available in Maven 3, and looked at how you will be able to write your pom files in Groovy, or in other non-XML notations. In this article, we'll take a further look at what you can do with a Maven pom file written in Groovy.

Maven 3 is promising to be the most significant upgrade since the release of Maven 2.

In this article, I will be giving a preview of this last feature.
