Merging of two projects
Both Simon Stewart and Jason Huggins thought that it would be a really good idea to merge the two projects together. This was then called Selenium 2.
The Selenium core developers have been working really hard to simplify the code base and remove as much duplication as possible. We have created what is known as Selenium Atoms, which is then shared between the two projects.

- To set up Java environment, refer to http://www.tutorialspoint.com/java/java_environment_setup.htm.
Setting up the IntelliJ IDEA project
We will be setting up IntelliJ IDEA project using JUnit as the testing framework to drive our tests. Let's get started...
