1. Start Mongoose in WebUI mode:

   $ java -jar <path_to_jar>/mongoose.jar webui
   Mongoose starts as HTTP-server locally on the port 8080.

2. Open a browser at address <current_machine_IP>:8080. For instance, http://localhost:8080/.

Mongoose WebUI is a single page application. It allows to use Mongoose tool via GUI. Also WebUI extends Mongoose tests' reporting with charts.

Below shows the demo of Mongoose run with the default scenario via WebUI. Commentaries are situated at the top of the demo.

As shown in the demo WebUI has three tabs on the main page. There are Scenarios, Defaults and Tests. The following briefly describes each of them.

On this tab scenarios for Mongoose are shown as a tree. These scenarios are supplied with Mongoose ("out of the box"). You can edit them or run as they are.

After editing you can save the scenario or open your own.

1. Main tabs
2. Control panel
3. Scenarios' tree

When a scenario has been selected the tree of scenario's properties is open.

1. Scenario's full name
2. Scenario's properties tree
3. "Back to scenarios' tree" button
4. Scenario's JSON view
5. Field of a scenario property changing

Defaults tab is similar to Scenarios tabs. Defaults means Mongoose's configuration. The configuration is also has a tree view.
