Hypothesis:

• Selenium is a software-based robot.

• Selenium’s mission is to mimic and automate how users interact with an application.

• For mobile, this means handling real devices.

• To test mobile, could I take Selenium out of the screen and into the real world?

•Electronics: Arduino

•Mechanics: Bitbeam- Lego Technic compatible building toy- Made from Basswood- Designed with 3D tool OpenSCAD- Lasercut at TechShop San Francisco

•Software: Python, OpenCV
