Applitools Visual Testing tutorial with Nightwatch

Pre-requisites:

1. Download Selenium Standalone server here
   • Note that this is a jar file. So you should also have Java installed on your machine.
2. Chrome Webdriver is on your machine and is in the PATH. Here are some resources from the internet that'll help you.
   • https://splinter.readthedocs.io/en/0.1/setup-chrome.html
   • https://stackoverflow.com/questions/38081021/using-selenium-on-mac-chrome
   • https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=182&v=dz59GsdvUF8
3. Run the standalone server jar file - it should look something like below:
   • java -jar selenium-server-standalone-3.141.59.jar (Replace the jar file name with your jar file name)
   • This will run Selenium on localhost and on port 4444
