  Let’s meet the Selenide – an open-source library for writing concise and stable UI Tests in Java. You will see how Selenide resolves all the typical problems with browsers and timeouts, allowing you to concentrate on business logic and write readable and stable tests in Java, Scala, Groovy and other JVM languages. I will demonstrate examples of using Selenide for testing Gmail, Github and even real internet-bank.”
