Should work just the same as if you used the standard Capybara Selenium driver, except for
these two differences:
* The browser starts up first thing and sticks around.
* The last page you were on before your tests passed/failed stays there, so you can inspect it.
* The browser starts up first thing and sticks around, so you don't pay the startup/shutdown
penalty with each test run.
* The last page you were on before your tests passed/failed stays there, so you can inspect it
and adjust your tests.
The browser's cookies and such are reset before the next test runs, so you still get the state
cleared out before your next set of tests.

It's DRb, which Just Works (tm), and a little reshuffling of the default Capybara Selenium driver's code.
#### When DRb doesn't Just Work (tm)
You may see recycled object errorrs. Capybara is complex enough that, eventually, something
will get garbage collected on the server and an object on the client will notice.
I turned off garbage collection on the server but it still happens.
Just rerun the test. It doesn't happen too often. It's the price you pay for speed.
