I hope to integrate interesting points from
http://ofbizwiki.go-integral.com/Wiki.jsp?page=FAQ&nbsp and http://www.opensourcestrategies.com/ofbiz/tutorials.php (OFBiz Cookbooks part). For the later it depends on OpenSource Strategies agreement (still waiting for it ;o).
But perhaps links to them may be sufficient... Until they diseappear... then I will see...

Some Selenium tips

Due to some license issues with external libraries used in Selenium we cannot include this in the Apache trunk. However, a new component has been created which is free to download and use, but lives in an ofbizext repository.
https://svn.hotwaxmedia.com/svn/ofbizext/selenium Drop this in hot-deploy. If you want to know more, please look at https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-680
