With WebDriver becoming a standard it's sad the browser vendors didn't work together to improve that. Instead Google made their own thing and now the world has to follow

Agreed. Any idea why Google didn't work with WebDriver and decided to spin-off yet another homegrown tech?

My conspiracy-laden mind veers towards the obvious but I'd prefer a better explanation.
