We downloaded a local copy of selenium standalone:
svn checkout http://gmaps-api-issues.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/selenium/core/

Then trying to run the entire test suite, we hit this bug:

Error: Permission denied to access property 'document' in scripts/selenium-testrunner.js at line 174

Bug report: http://jira.openqa.org/browse/SEL-612

We tried to apply this patch with no luck:
http://jira.openqa.org/secure/attachment/11720/selenium-testrunner-js.patch

Using single window mode (multiWindow=false), it does not work either:

The character encoding of the HTML document was not declared. The document will render with garbled text in some browser configurations if the document contains characters from outside the US-ASCII range. The character encoding of the page must to be declared in the document or in the transfer protocol.

Maybe we should look for another solution since this code does not seem to be maintained any more (last commit back in 2009).

(Tested on Firefox 12 & 15)

Acceptance tests are now done with Capybara.
