Bug 19243 - Selenium test for testing administrative tasks

This selenium test checks the following Administrative module
functionality:
* Add item type
* Add circulation rule
* Modify frameworks
* Add library
* Add authorised values
* Add patron category
* Add patron attribute type
* Add Z39.50 target server
* Add item circulation alert
* Add city

Test plan (this test plan includes how to install Selenium as well as how to
run this test, for the benefit of people who have not got
Selenium installed on their machines):

1. wget
https://selenium-release.storage.googleapis.com/2.53/selenium-server-standalone-2.53.0.jar

2. vim /etc/apt/sources.list.d/firefox.list

3. Paste into the file:
deb http://packages.linuxmint.com debian import

4. sudo apt-get update

5. sudo apt-get install firefox

6. sudo apt-get install xvfb

7. Set the SELENIUM_PATH vartiable:
SELENIUM_PATH=/home/vagrant/kohaclone/selenium-server-standalone-2.53.0.jar

8. Xvfb :1 -screen 0 1024x768x24 2>&1 >/dev/null &

9. DISPLAY=:1 java -jar $SELENIUM_PATH

Note: This will start up the selenium server. Everytime you want to
shutdown this terminal window and want to restart Selenium just run
the step 9 command to restart the Selenium server

10. Open a new terminal window and write in:
sudo cpanm -i Selenium::Remote::Driver

11. Now everything is installed and you can set up for running the
selenium tests

12. Drop and recreate the Koha database and restart memcached

13. Go through the web installer installing all sample data and
onboarding tool

14. Create a superlibrarian user with the username koha and password koha

15. If your usual port configuration for the intranet and OPAC is
8081 and 8080 respectively then set the staffClientBaseURL and
OPACBaseURL system preferences to localhost:8080 and localhost:80
respectively

16. sudo koha-shell <instancename>

17. perl t/db_dependent/selenium/administration_tasks.t

18. The test should pass.
Note: The time_diff comments in the test output showing what the
test is doing

Note: If you have issues with installing Selenium and
Selenium::Remote::Driver please write a comment on the bug report
and I will be more than happy to create a screencapture video
showing all the steps

Note: Warns in front of the $driver->get_title() function have been
implemented because during troubleshooting they were found to be an
effective solution for stopping the test from failing due to not
being able to find an element on the page. If anyone can suggest an
alternative to using these warns please do
