The current suite tests fails when running in Internet Explorer browsers due to:

• The pre-check (javascript beforescenario hook) of the Selenium instance is too early in the IE startup process and the driver is not ready to run Javascript so it just dies when receives the JS script
• When checking contents we wait for the DOM to be ready between steps, the i_log_in_as() step definition includes a I should see "You are logged in as" this is really stupid because the browser can think that is the last page DOM like IE and Safari does.
• Windows fails to check xpaths when they contain UNIX line breaks
• Safari fails to select the specified options in select boxes, we need to click on the option to fire the action rather than change to the option and click on the select box
