It could be the whole stack (firefox, selenium, cucumber, and
mediawiki itself all inside the vagrant VM).

But in this case the instructions said to configure the VM to use a
remote mediawiki with `export
MEDIAWIKI_URL=http://en.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org/wiki/` so firefox,
selenium, cucumber, etc. would have been local in the VM and mediawiki
on the labs cluster.

See the other threads about the workshop on this list,
