Yes, exactly.  FWIW, when I run tests locally, the environment variables I
use constantly are:

MEDIAWIKI_USER (often Selenium_user)
MEDIAWIKI_PASSWORD (let me know if you need this)
MEDIAWIKI_URL (defaults to beta enwiki, as Jeff noted above)
and
BROWSER_LABEL  (either 'chrome' or 'firefox' (default value) on my local
Linux machine.  Note that if you want to use Chrome you need ChromeDriver
on the local machine, https://code.google.com/p/selenium/wiki/ChromeDriver,
it should Just Work if you follow the instructions there)
