Challenge Overview
Project Overview
This project, the CSFV Community Gaming website project will provide the web site infrastructure and integration of the games. This will be a web site that is available on the Internet, and also will be delivered in a form where the server and the games can be installed and used behind a firewall.
The goal of this contest is to build Selenium testing scripts in NodeJS. This challenge will implement a suite of Selenium test cases for the CSFV Forums.
