    Description

      Xvfb is a minimalist in-memory X server, without VNC. For our use-case, Xvfb may be faster and may avoid some of the issues we have with Xvnc.
      A Jenkins plugin exists to use Xvfb in Jenkins: https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Xvfb+Plugin
      It requires Xvfb to be install in the slaves we use of IC, and the plugin installed on Jenkins.
