Leaving the Selenium IDE Crutches

When we started the pilot, I would write tests in Selenium IDE (just recording actions) then convert those scripts to Groovy and pass them to the developers. These developers would then write out the actual tests.

The Architect has made a request today: He wants QA to start writing the acceptance tests.

I'm a bit nervous - this is entirely new to me. New ground... but, damnit i'm going to do it. I'm going to get this done. I'm taking the work laptop home tonight and I have these goals:
a) get eclipse installed
b) download our acceptance tests repository locally
c) get maven and maven plugin for eclipse installed
d) install groovy
e) load in the acceptance tests correctly
