These atoms are generated from the selenium trunk. They are minified versions of what's in the trunk, optimized to run on Firefox. To generate them, clone the repo: svn checkout http://selenium.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ selenium-read-only then run the Google closure compiler and specify which atom you'd like to get. For example, this will generate the "get_text" atom: cd selenium-read-only ./go //javascript/webdriver/atoms:get_text:firefox This generates the atom, which is a function. You'll need to assign that function to a variable of your choice which you can then import, i.e.: you'll need to modify the atom with a variable assignment: var myVar = You can now import this atom and call it with myVar(). Please note the name of the function as a comment above this line to help readability in the atoms file.
