Description Leo Ufimtsev CLA 2017-07-19 17:55:59 EDT 
In tests/../pom.xml, we hard-code the default browser to be webkit. This causes maven tests related to Browser to fail on Windows as it's trying to use webkit instead of I.e, which by default is not installed.

I.e:
<argLine> .. -Dorg.eclipse.swt.browser.DefaultType=webkit ... </argLine>

Since XUL Runner is removed from codebase, hard-coding webkit is no longer needed. As of recently:
- On Linux, webkit is default 
- On Cocoa, webkit is default
- On Win,   I.E is default

Thus the hard-coding can be safely removed without breakage.
~Patch en route.
