> There is no reason to delegate failure to Selenium. If browser binary does not exist for default selenium, simply fail fast. E.g.
> {code:xml}
> <property name="browser">*firefox /opt/firefox-9.0.1/firefox-bin</property>
> {code}
> {code}
> java.lang.RuntimeException: Could not start Selenium session: Failed to start new browser session: java.lang.RuntimeException: Firefox 3 could not be found in the path!
> Please add the directory containing ''firefox.exe'' to your PATH environment
> variable, or explicitly specify a path to Firefox 3 like this:
> *firefox3 c:\blah\firefox.exe
> 	at com.thoughtworks.selenium.DefaultSelenium.start(DefaultSelenium.java:109)
> 	at org.jboss.arquillian.drone.selenium.factory.DefaultSeleniumFactory.createInstance(DefaultSeleniumFactory.java:67)
> {code}
