   Did you read the article I mentioned?
   There's not much more information I can provide you other than that and the therein linked Watir API.

   You need to write a Ruby script that will use the exposed browser variable.
   That variable provides you with a Watir instance that allows you to interact with the web application and log-in.

   You load that script by passing it to the login_script plugin like so:

   --plugin=login_script:script=my_script.rb
   

   You can find more about the Watir API at: http://watir.github.io/docs/home

   The most important thing to remember is that you should not try to instantiate a new Watir client (i.e. you can't use a different browser), you should only use the one provided by the browser variable.

   Does that clear things up?
