/**
 * Interface for classes that manage a Nextcloud server during acceptance tests.
 *
 * A NextcloudTestServerHelper takes care of setting up a Nextcloud server to be
 * used in acceptance tests through its "setUp" method. It does not matter
 * wheter the server is a fresh new server just started or an already running
 * server; in any case, the state of the server must comply with the initial
 * state expected by the tests (like having performed the Nextcloud installation
 * or having an admin user with certain password).
 *
 * As the IP address and thus its the base URL of the server is not known
 * beforehand, the NextcloudTestServerHelper must provide it through its
 * "getBaseUrl" method. Note that this must be the base URL from the point of
 * view of the Selenium server, which may be a different value than the base URL
 * from the point of view of the acceptance tests themselves.
 *
 * Once the Nextcloud test server is no longer needed the "cleanUp" method will
 * be called; depending on how the Nextcloud test server was set up it may not
 * need to do anything.
 *
 * All the methods throw an exception if they fail to execute; as, due to the
 * current use of this interface, it is just a warning for the test runner and
 * nothing to be explicitly catched a plain base Exception is used.
