* Setup your Selenium Grid and update your *.cfg file to point there. An example config file called selenium_server_config_example.cfg has been provided for you in the integrations/selenium_grid folder. The start-selenium-node.bat and start-selenium-server.sh files are for running your grid. In an example situation, your Selenium Grid server might live on a unix box and your Selenium Grid nodes might live on EC2 Windows virtual machines. When your build server runs a Selenium test, it would connect to your Selenium Grid to find out which Grid browser nodes are available to run that test. To simplify things, you can use [Browser Stack](https://www.browserstack.com/automate) as your entire Selenium Grid (and let them do all the fun work of maintaining the grid for you).
* There are ways of running your tests from Jenkins without having to utilize a remote machine. One way is by using PhantomJS as your browser (it runs headlessly). Another way is by using Xvfb (another headless system). [There's a plugin for Xvfb in Jenkins](https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Xvfb+Plugin).
If you have Xvfb running in the background, you can add ``--headless`` to your run command in order to utilize it.
Here are some more helpful resources I found regarding the use of Xvfb:

If you have Xvfb running in the background, you can add ``--headless`` to your run command in order to utilize it. For information about the Xvfb plugin for Jenkins, [click here](http://qxf2.com/blog/xvfb-plugin-for-jenkins-selenium/).
* If you use [Slack](https://slack.com), you can easily have your Jenkins jobs display results there by using the [Jenkins Slack Plugin](https://github.com/jenkinsci/slack-plugin). Another way to send messages from your tests to Slack is by using [Slack's Incoming Webhooks API](https://api.slack.com/incoming-webhooks).
