Convert WebKitDriver to a remote WebDriver #5

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Currently the WebKitDriver creates a new wrapper process around WebKit, and 
uses JNI and custom serialization-deserialization to communicate to the child 
process through sockets. 

To bring WebKitDriver inline with the rest of the WebDriver family, we should:

- Use mongoose.c (also used in IE and Chrome WebDrivers) to start a light 
weight web server in front of WebKit
- Use RemoteWebDriver to communicate to the server.
- Use Browser Atoms as the communication protocol

A generic C++ WebDriver server has been extracted from the IE driver and can be 
found here:
