Thanks for your feedback, Dave!

We can put the tests under the regression directory. I think that makes
sense.
I'm not picturing these tests being module specific, but we may want to
enable running it as a separate suite of tests.

Thanks for the callout about the port and title. We'll make sure those are
pulled from config or that the pgAdmin server is spun up by the test with
specific values.

I have a couple ideas about why the test might not have been running for
you. I think the patch we attached didn't spin up its own pgAdmin yet and
it definitely doesn't fill in username/password if your app is running that
way. That's part of the WIP-ness :-P

A few thoughts:

- If these tests are to run as part of the regression suite, the
framework for them should live under that directory.

- Are any of the tests likely to be module-specific? If so, they
should really be part of the relevant module as the regression tests
are. If they're more general/less tightly coupled, then I don't see a
problem with them residing where they are.

- Please take care not to include changes to .gitgnore files that
aren't relevant to the rest of us.

- The port number is hard-coded in the test.

- You've hard-coded the string "pgAdmin 4". We've tried to keep that
title as a config option in config.py, so you should pull the string
from there rather than hard-coding it.

- The connect test fails for me (Mac, Python 2.7). I have a suspicion
that this may be because when the test starts chromedriver, OS X
prompts the user about whether a listening port should be opened, but
the tests don't wait (though, I tested with 3 servers configured and
it failed with the same error on the second and third as well, long
after I clicked OK on the prompt):

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Users/dpage/git/pgadmin4/web/acceptance/test_connects_to_database.py",
line 32, in runTest
    self.assertEqual("pgAdmin 4", self.driver.title)
AssertionError: 'pgAdmin 4' != u'localhost'

- Please keep tests in the pgadmin. namespace (pgadmin.acceptance.??).

- It looks like running a single test won't work yet (because of
TestsGeneratorRegistry.load_generators('pgadmin.%s.tests' %
arguments['pkg']))

Thanks!
