Example Python Multiple Browser Automated Unit Testing Using Selenium 2 WebDriver (Chrome and Firefox Separately Defined)
# Import unittest module for creating unit tests
import unittest
# Import time module to implement
import time
# Import the Selenium 2 module (aka "webdriver")
from selenium import webdriver
# For automating data input
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
# For providing custom configurations for Chrome to run
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
# --------------------------------------

# Window management hacks because I'm using OS X. On Windows or Linux you could just specify these as a ChromeOption
self.driver.set_window_size(1920, 1080)
