Hey, I feel your pain.  I'm already manually testing on Chrome, FF, and 
IE, Wildfly and EAP 6.3 prior to releasing.  I"m not worried about the 
Java stuff.  Our Wildfly adapter is already integrated into our 
testsuite.  Really any Java-based adapter should be integratable with 
our testsuite.

integrate with it. :(
