=================================================================================================

NOTE: tests can be disrupted by Firefox setup dialogues, which can happen after an update/install.
NOTE: running a gui in a vm is not a good idea. May need to increase the wait time and/or memory allocated to the VM for the vm to enable the browser to respond in time for the framework.
