<h2><a href="http://qemu.org">QEMU</a></h2>
 
<p> QEMU is a generic and open source machine emulator and
 
        virtualizer. When used as a machine emulator, QEMU can run OSes and
 
        programs made for one machine (e.g. an ARM board) on a different
 
        machine (e.g. your own PC). By using dynamic translation, it achieves
 
        very good performance. When used as a virtualizer, QEMU achieves near
 
        native performances by executing the guest code directly on the host
 
        CPU. QEMU supports
 
 virtualization when executing under the Xen hypervisor or using the
 
        KVM kernel module in Linux. When using KVM, QEMU can virtualize x86,
 
        server and embedded PowerPC, and S390 guests.</p>
 

	
 
<h2><a href="https://www.samba.org/samba/">Samba</a></h2>
 

	
 
<p>Samba is a FOSS suite that provides seamless file and print
 
services to SMB/CIFS clients, namely, to Microsoft Windows. Samba is
 
freely available, unlike other SMB/CIFS implementations, and allows
 
for interoperability between Linux/Unix servers and Windows-based
 
clients.  Samba is software that can be run on a platform other than
 
Microsoft Windows. For example, Samba runs on Unix, GNU/Linux, IBM
 
System z, Solaris, Mac OS X, and OpenVMS, among others. It is
 
standard on virtually all distributions of GNU/Linux and is commonly
 
included as a basic system service on other UNIX-based systems as
 
well. Samba uses the TCP/IP protocol that is installed on the host
 
server.</p>
 

	
 
<p>One of the key goals of the project is to remove barriers to
 
interoperability. Samba is a software package that gives network
 
administrators flexibility and freedom in setup, configuration, choice
 
of systems, and equipment. Samba is released under the GPL.</p>

&ldquo;WebDriver&rdquo; and &ldquo;RC&rdquo; which provide APIs for
 
browser automation in a wide variety of languages, and &ldquo;Grid&rdquo;,
 
which allows many tests using the APIs to be run in parallel. It works
 
with most browsers, including Firefox, Internet Explorer, Google Chrome,
 
Safari and Opera.</p>
