About:

  This is a Sinatra web application.

  

  It uses the `headless` and `selenium-webdriver` gems to launch a firefox browser.

  

  It runs commands on the firefox browser.

  

  It shows the firefox browser's current state as a screenshot

  

  It can forward clicks to the firefox browser, enter text, and execute arbitrary javascript.

  

  It records macros of command sequences and replays them.

  

  It can nest macros.

  

  It handles alerts/prompts/confirms to address selenium's shortcomings.
