Comment:

 Looks good so far! It would need to run with [https://travis-
 ci.org/isislovecruft/bridgedb/builds BridgeDB's CI] infrastructure, of
 course. [http://docs.travis-ci.com/user/gui-and-headless-browsers/ They
 mention using Sauce Connect or xvfb.] `xvfb` is probably the best way to
 go that requires the least amount of changes to your `mechanize` script.
