Important note: * We’ll only be able to test Firefox and Chrome browsers since there’s no Docker containers for windows/mac having IE11/Edge and Safari (they’re not supported ATM even on windows machines). * We could work around this by having some agents running on Windows and using the installed IE11/Edge browser (i.e. not running in a Docker container).

However I wonder if it will also be as useful for different servlet containers and databases (at least when the database schema doesn't change). I tried to run the tests on my machine but I got an error: https://pastebin.com/raw/cYjec5Bm (I haven't analyzed it yet but you might have an idea why I'm getting this).

Also it's a bit disturbing to wait for the docker images to be downloaded without knowing it (we should at least have a message saying "Downloading images..." or even better, the docker output).
