    config:
        WebDriver:
            url: 'http://localhost/joomla-cms3/'     # the url that points to the joomla cms
            browser: 'firefox'

            window_size: 1024x768
            capabilities:
              unexpectedAlertBehaviour: 'accept'
            username: 'admin'
            password: 'admin'
            database host: 'localhost'             # place where the Application is Hosted #server Address

            install sample data: 'Yes'              # Do you want to Download the Sample Data Along with Joomla Installation, then keep it Yes
