Monitoring Uptime – New Relic + Selenium (Automated Testing)

First step was creating unit tests using the Selenium IDE and getting an understanding of the process and code output. Second was outputting in a nodeJs format that New Relic (our monitoring solution) would understand and making changes to get it to work properly. In the end, we wound up with a great way to easily ping every X number of minutes and ensure multiple environments were up and communicating properly and we are notified immediately in case of latency or uptime issues.
