--- Comment #38 from Marcel de Rooy <m.de.rooy at rijksmuseum.nl> ---
I am not sure if we should have coupled the option of a test database and the
selenium test environment on this report.
The two config options database and database_test do not seem a good idea to
me, intuitively. It looks more like a hack? (Also taken in consideration that
git grep shows me that the database config variable is used in more places.)

On another report we already had a discussion about the rollback of changes for
selenium tests. I think we'd better separate the test suite from the selenium
tests. And actually, we have already the tools to create separate instances for
selenium and testing. With a separate KOHA_CONF in the webserver configuration
selenium can be run on its own. Same for t/db_dependent. Only thing is that we
want to do it faster. But does that justify a bunch of code changes that might
jeopardize code quality?

This needs (imo) more serious thought and a broader discussion.
