>Description:
This is the selenium remote control binding for PHP.  It is introduced using PEAR and bsd.pear.mk infrastructure per my original msg:

http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-ports/2007-October/044285.html



http://people.collaborativefusion.com/~seklecki/pear-Testing_Selenium_032_bas.tarPort:   

x Makefile
x distinfo
x pkg-descr

I have sent notification to selenium-rc-users at openqa.org as well.  Portlint(1) shows some ugly errors, but we can work that out with additional testing.
>How-To-Repeat:
There is already a very old port based on the project:

selenium-0.6.1
Path:   /usr/ports/www/selenium
Info:   Selenium is web application test tool!
Maint:  kaworu at users.sourceforge.jp
B-deps: 
R-deps: 
WWW:    http://selenium.thoughtworks.com/

>Fix:

You can presently only install the recent technology of Selenium_Testing via the pear CLI which leads to bitrot and conflicts because Ports DB is unaware of it.  This is a ports-wrapper around the PEAR package.
