/**
 * WebDriver is a remote control interface that enables introspection and control of user agents
 * (browsers). The methods in this interface fall into three categories:
 * <ul>
 * <li>Control of the browser itself</li>
 * <li>Selection of {@link WebElement}s</li>
 * <li>Debugging aids</li>
 * </ul>
 * <p>
 * Key methods are {@link WebDriver#get(String)}, which is used to load a new web page, and the
 * various methods similar to {@link WebDriver#findElement(By)}, which is used to find
 * {@link WebElement}s.
 * <p>
 * Currently, you will need to instantiate implementations of this interface directly. It is hoped
 * that you write your tests against this interface so that you may "swap in" a more fully featured
 * browser when there is a requirement for one.
 * <p>
 * Most implementations of this interface follow
 * <a href="https://w3c.github.io/webdriver/">W3C WebDriver specification</a>
