  # = System Testing
  #
  # System tests let you test applications in the browser. Because system
  # tests use a real browser experience, you can test all of your JavaScript
  # easily from your test suite.
  #
  # To create a system test in your application, extend your test class
  # from <tt>ApplicationSystemTestCase</tt>. System tests use Capybara as a
  # base and allow you to configure the settings through your
  # <tt>application_system_test_case.rb</tt> file that is generated with a new
  # application or scaffold.
  #
  # Here is an example system test:
  #
  #   require 'application_system_test_case'
  #
  #   class Users::CreateTest < ApplicationSystemTestCase
  #     test "adding a new user" do
  #       visit users_path
  #       click_on 'New User'
  #
  #       fill_in 'Name', with: 'Arya'
  #       click_on 'Create User'
  #
  #       assert_text 'Arya'
  #     end
  #   end
  #
  # When generating an application or scaffold, an +application_system_test_case.rb+
  # file will also be generated containing the base class for system testing.
  # This is where you can change the driver, add Capybara settings, and other
  # configuration for your system tests.
  #
  #   require "test_helper"
  #
  #   class ApplicationSystemTestCase < ActionDispatch::SystemTestCase
  #     driven_by :selenium, using: :chrome, screen_size: [1400, 1400]
  #   end
  #
  # By default, <tt>ActionDispatch::SystemTestCase</tt> is driven by the
  # Selenium driver, with the Chrome browser, and a browser size of 1400x1400.
  #
  # Changing the driver configuration options are easy. Let's say you want to use
  # the Firefox browser instead of Chrome. In your +application_system_test_case.rb+
  # file add the following:
  #
  #   require "test_helper"
  #
  #   class ApplicationSystemTestCase < ActionDispatch::SystemTestCase
  #     driven_by :selenium, using: :firefox
  #   end
  #
  # +driven_by+ has a required argument for the driver name. The keyword
  # arguments are +:using+ for the browser and +:screen_size+ to change the
  # size of the browser screen. These two options are not applicable for
  # headless drivers and will be silently ignored if passed.
  #
  # To use a headless driver, like Poltergeist, update your Gemfile to use
  # Poltergeist instead of Selenium and then declare the driver name in the
  # +application_system_test_case.rb+ file. In this case you would leave out the +:using+
  # option because the driver is headless.
  #
  #   require "test_helper"
  #   require "capybara/poltergeist"
  #
  #   class ApplicationSystemTestCase < ActionDispatch::SystemTestCase
  #     driven_by :poltergeist
  #   end
  #
  # Because <tt>ActionDispatch::SystemTestCase</tt> is a shim between Capybara
  # and Rails, any driver that is supported by Capybara is supported by system
  # tests as long as you include the required gems and files.
